This is a collection of research bulletins produced by the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station from 1887 to 2011. Bulletins were used by the Agricultural Experiment Station to disseminate research about crops, farming, wildlife, ranching, weather, etc. The research presented was generated across the SDSU College of Agriculture and Biological Sciences.
Funding for the digitization and preservation of this collection was provided by the College of Agricultural and Biological Sciences. Print copies of all research bulletins are preserved in the University Archives.
