Public Issues Education-Hawai‘i (PIE-HI) is a new research and outreach program at the College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources that aims to understand public perceptions and attitudes toward agriculture and natural resource issues in Hawaii. PIE-HI conducts unbiased research, develops educational programs, and provides strategic communication and training support to help policymakers and the public make informed decisions. PIE-HI's initial research found that water issues, understanding of agriculture/natural resources, technologies, land issues, and costs were the top five issues according to agriculture and natural resource professionals.
