RUSSELLVILLE, Ark. – Arkansas Tech University officials are pointing to the progress being made on its new agriculture building.
Officials stated that the concrete pad for the building was poured on Thursday, and the building is scheduled to be erected in early July. Interior finish and equipment installation will follow.
The 3,300-square-foot Farm Credit Agriculture Building will house welding equipment, a tool storage area, classroom space, laboratory space, and other equipment used by the ATU agriculture program. It is scheduled to open in late 2025, officials said.
University officials said Farm Credit, Arkansas Farm Bureau, Greenway Equipment, Arvest Bank and Union Bank are among the financial contributors making the construction project possible. Mobley Concrete donated the concrete for the foundation.
The building will be outfitted with equipment provided through a $730,000 federal grant earned for ATU by Rep. Steve Womack (AR-03). Officials said the grant will also enable the purchase of virtual and augmented reality welding systems, which will help future K-12 agriculture teachers prepare for lessons they will teach.
