Notes

An annual report from the Regents of the New Mexico College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts about the Agricultural Experiment Station. Beginning in 1891, the reports were sent to the Governor of New Mexico. They described ongoing research projects and staff activities, and included financial reports on income and expenses. The Agricultural Experiment Station was funded through the Hatch Act of 1887, which provided federal support for a nationwide system of experiment stations affiliated with land-grant colleges established under the Morrill Act of 1862. Over time, these stations became important research centers that advanced agriculture, environmental protection, and human health. This digital collection includes reports published between 1889 and 1978
