Final date: Wednesday, Oct 15, 2025 at 11:59pm (Pacific Time) Applications will continue to be accepted until this date, but those received after the review date will only be considered if the position has not yet been filled. Position description Position Overview: The University of California, Agriculture and Natural Resources (UC ANR) invites applications for a UC Cooperative Extension Fruit Postharvest Area Advisor serving Fresno, Kern, Kings, Madera, and Tulare Counties, at the Assistant rank. The advisor will develop an innovative multi-county applied research and extension education program to support the fruit industry in the San Joaquin Valley. The Central Valley supplies the US and the world with a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, contributing significantly to the state's economy and international trade. Fruits such as grapes, stone fruits, citrus, berries, and nuts, as well as vegetables like tomatoes and garlic, are among the commodities in the area this position will serve. While advanced agricultural practices have significantly increased the productivity of these and other crops, ensuring the quality, safety, and longevity of harvested crops remains a critical challenge. Postharvest losses due to spoilage, damage, and deterioration not only have significant economic implications but contribute to food insecurity and environmental degradation. The Advisor will establish a postharvest research and extension program in the Central Valley to address and improve the postharvest practices for fruit and vegetable crops. The role involves conducting research, developing innovative strategies, and implementing best practices to optimize postharvest processes, minimize losses, and maintain the quality and safety of fruits from harvest to consumption. The Advisor will collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to improve efficiency, sustainability, and profitability in the agricultural supply chain. UCCE Advisors are responsible for applied research and extension of knowledge. Research activities are applied, needs-based, mission-oriented, and focused on addressing our communities' challenges. Extension activities are the educational practices advisors use to share research results directly with clientele and communities to increase their knowledge and understanding of science-based research results that support and promote the adoption of practices and technologies to solve problems. Extension methods may include individual consultations, presentations, organization of educational workshops and short courses, field demonstrations, farm calls, and site visits. Information may also be disseminated via radio outreach, webinars, fact sheets, policy briefs, news blogs, and social media. Publications are expected in various formats, such as newsletters, articles for the popular press, curriculums, conference proceedings, and peer-reviewed publications. Successful research and extension programs result in new information that improves knowledge or understanding and adoption of new skills, practices, changed attitudes, policies, and improved environmental, health, agricultural, economic, and/or social conditions. UCCE Advisors are evaluated through an academic advancement system based on four criteria: extending knowledge, applied research and creative activity, professional competence and activity, and university and public service. There is an expectation that advisors evolve and grow across their careers and respond to changes in the industry, clientele, and organizational change.
