Biographical History
The Agricultural Experiment Station began with the 1887 Hatch Act, to develop agricultural research and education. In addition, during the 1930s, it worked with other federal and state agencies, including the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, the Nevada Emergency Relief Administration, the Farm Credit Administration, and Indian Field Service on several projects. In 1939, the Experiment Station, together with the U.S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics and the Nevada Agricultural Extension Service, formed the Nevada State Land Use Planning Committee, a project to study farm planning on selected farms in Nevada.
The Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station was established with the Hatch Act in 1887, which provided an annual appropriation to each state to establish a nation-wide system of experiment stations, with a board of control to decide the agricultural problems to be studied. A lack of funds for the Nevada university removed the possibility of the station having its own staff and facilities, and the university president, Joseph E. Stubbs, was appointed director of the Nevada Experiment Station, the staff were university personnel, and the Board of Regents served as the Board of Control.
The Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station was created in 1887, with an emphasis on experimental work and extension services, and studies of the economic problems of agriculture. The station personnel also worked with other government agencies, including the Carson Indian agency and the Nevada land use planning committee, to produce reports and recommendations.
In 1936, the Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station published Bulletin No. 141, the relationship between tree-growth and stream runoff in the Truckee River Basin, California-Nevada, by George Hardman and Orvis E. Reil. Using an increment borer, a small section of the tree was removed to be dated, counted, measured and correlated for comparison between tree-growth, precipitation, and stream runoff.
The Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station was created in 1887, with an emphasis on experimental work, and studies of the economic problems of agriculture.
The Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station began with the Hatch Act, 1887. University staff served as staff of the Station until 1912, when Samuel B. Doten, was appointed Director.
The Agricultural Experiment Station began with the Hatch Act, 1887, to develop agricultural research and education. In 1918, Samuel B. Doten, Station director, hired George Hardman and put him in charge of the Station farm and on the faculty. Hardman worked on an irrigation investigation of the Humboldt River, 1919-1921, and on soil experiments both in Reno and Las Vegas, Nevada. In 1925, he moved to Las Vegas, with his work there resulting in several bulletins before returning to Reno in 1934.
