Annual Report Of The Porto Rico Agricultural Experiment Station For 1901 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Annual Report of the Porto Rico Agricultural Experiment Station for 1901 It is hoped that land may be Obtained for the permanent location Of the station in the near future and that it will be possible to greatly develop the work Of the station during the coming year. Considering the large agricultural interests Of the island and the variety of work which needs to be done by the station, the appropriation for its sup port by Congress should not be less than per annum. In addition to this, money will be needed for the purchase of land, erec tion of buildings, and equipment of the station. The station will, therefore, need such financial assistance from the Territory of Porto Rico as was given in the other States and Territories. There are no results Of experimental work to be reported at this time. This report is, therefore, chiefly confined to a statement of the agricultural conditions and needs Of the island. As seen by the writer in the course of such an agricultural survey as he has been able to make in the space of nine months.
