Sometimes students ask questions that are agriculturally related. I would like to suggest the following as sources to be considered:
National Agricultural Library has a well known database called Agricola and has an Ask a Librarian Service.
Cornell University is New York’s land grant university and its agricultural programs and research are known around the world. Its extension service offers assistance.
New York State’s Agricultural and Marketing Department offers much information about NY State.
The Horticultural Society of New York City offers some assistance to all New Yorkers and has a catalog that can be searched remotely, and a beautiful library.
