Reports to the Public
Research program results of Colorado State University and
the Southwestern Colorado Research Center are disseminated through
public field days, field tours, publications and news releases.
University publications are available at the Research Center
or through the county extension offices.
Individuals and groups are welcome at the Southwestern Colorado
Research Center at all times. Tours can be arranged by contacting
the station manager at Mark.Stack@ColoState.EDU
