About CMREC-UME

A part of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources [1], the Central Maryland Research and Education Center (CMREC) is comprised of five Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station [2](MAES) research farms and associated facilities which are located in two central Maryland counties within the greater Baltimore-Washington population center.

CMREC Headquarters is located less than a mile from the Clarksville Facility and houses the Center's administrative offices. University of Maryland Extension [3] houses faculty and staff at Headquarters and the Upper Marlboro Facility.

  • CMREC Headquarters [4] (Ellicott City)
  • Beltsville Facility [5]
  • Clarksville Facility [6] (Ellicott City)
  • Paint Branch Turfgrass Facility [7] (College Park)
  • Upper Marlboro Facility [8]

These off-campus facilities support a broad range of research and Extension programs for faculty representing five of the academic departments within the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) [9] at the University of Maryland [10].

Michael Dywer is the Center Director (acting) for CMREC, as well as for the Western Maryland and Lower Eastern Shore Research and Education Centers (WMREC [11] & LESREC [12]).
