Our main office is in Las Cruces on the campus of New Mexico State University. Few know that the university -- whose origins are agricultural in nature -- was founded more than two decades prior to statehood. That's why when the New Mexico State Constitution was penned, its writers called for "a department of agriculture [under] the board of regents of the college of agriculture and mechanic arts." The collaborative relationship that language created still exists today.Learn more about NMDA and its service to New Mexicans and the state: www.nmda.nmsu.edu.Like us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/NMDeptAgFollow us on Twitter: @NMDeptAgFollow us on Instagram: nmdeptag
