On December 1, 1949, a cooperative agreement was approved by the Department of Horticulture of the Illinois Agricultural Experiment Station, and the Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, Illinois, relative to the establishment and operation of a Horticultural Experiment Station at Carbondale in Jackson County. The purpose of the station was to provide facilities for carrying out research and demonstrations with horticultural crops to help satisfy the needs of the growers in Southern Illinois. Breeding and development of new varieties of fruits adapted to the region, and testing the adaptibility of existing varieties and rootstocks, were to be important functions of this station.
