Chile Culture, by Fabian Garcia

00

In 1907, Fabian Garcia, a horticulturist at the Agricultural Experiment Station at the New Mexico College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts (now New Mexico State University) began his first experiments in breeding more standardized chile varieties, and in 1908 published “Chile Culture,” the first chile bulletin from the Agricultural Experiment Station. In 1913, Garcia became director of the Experiment Station and expanded his breeding program.
We believe that his pamphlet is the first publication of instructions on how to grow chile peppers. To read it, click on the link below. It will open in PDF format.
