Program Description Clemson University operates numerous programs aimed at small farmers. The majority of these are conducted through individual county agent offices. Examples of these programs include a major thrust on meat goat production and marketing. Vegetable production has been in the spotlight in South Carolina. With vegetables, small farmers have been taught everything from production practices, handling, packaging, to marketing. In addition to individual programs that are commodity oriented, the Edisto Research and Education Center (one of five outlying centers within the State) conducts a one day event aimed at providing agricultural experience to farmers.
