Introduction
In 1984, the National Agricultural Library published a bibliography in observance of Hispanic Heritage Week. This bibliography expands on that publication. The theme of the 2001 observance of Hispanic Heritage Month was "Paving the Way for Future Generations". In this bibliography, the focus of attention is on the contributions of the Hispanic people to American Agriculture, their influence on American life such as our tastes in food, and the innovations that they contributed. Hispanic people have also passed on many horse, sheep, and cattle ranching practices to areas of the Southwestern United States. These contributions are just a few of the ways that Hispanic Americans have truly paved the way for future generations.Page URL - http://www.nal.usda.gov/outreach/Hispanic_Contrib_Ag_Bibl.html
