The Controlled Environment Agriculture Program (CEAC) facilities are located within the Campus Agricultural Center (CAC) at Campbell Avenue and Roger Road, approximately 3 miles north of main campus, Tucson, Arizona.
The greenhouse facilities include a 5200 square foot educational laboratory (2078), 2 research/demonstration greenhouses (2091-A & -C) (2700 square foot each), and an 11,000 square foot retractable roof greenhouse. These facilities offer experiential activities for students, including design and operations of computer environmental controllers, drip irrigation and fertigation systems, and general greenhouse actuators for environmental control. Another greenhouse research facility includes a 25 by 75 foot single bay, multiple-environmental zone greenhouse (3018), whose aerial environment (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and root zone nutritional environment (Electrical Conductivity) are computer controlled to an accuracy greater than any greenhouse system on campus.
