| We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here |
| AgNews offers everything from breaking news (with archives) to
research and education to a Texas treasure hunt. The site includes two
dozen categories of interesting information and links, with entries like
nutrition, forestry, wildlife, and veterinary medicine in addition to ag
economics and ag education. A great resource. |
| Numerous agriculture links related to farms, ranches, markets,
associations, research, weather, plus the invitation to "skip the
serious stuff and go straight to Mr. Potato Head." (We recommend
it!) |
| If you're on the farming front lines, this is your site. Many
partnerships have helped this site's publishers develop a huge
repository of information, with weather updates, for sale listings, tons
of technology plus Crop Scouting Talk ("How's your winter wheat
look?"), Cattle Offerings Worldwide (COW!), much more. |

capabilities in English and French. |

here: biotechnical information, a very long list of ag links, and Benny
Broccoli, whose hands-on educational materials you can get free if
you're a teacher. |

Sciences site offers pictures, descriptions, and biological control
information for "Natural Enemies in North America," including

great source for growers, researchers, students, and teachers. |
| Oklahoma State University offers this resource where hundreds of
livestock breeds are described in photo and word, organized by species

of livestock as opposed to plant contributions to human diet, and on the
worth of older and endangered breeds. |
