Other research areas include weed science, plant pathology, and horticulture. Shelterbelt plantings have been tested since 1917. In 1987, a vineyard was established and since that time more than 50 grape varieties have been tested with positive results for Wyoming production. The Foundation Seed Program is also an integral part of the operations. Foundation winter wheat, barley, and oat seed are raised, cleaned, treated, bagged, and then sold to the certified seed growers in the state.
Seasonal help is hired in the summer months.
