Global ?[edit]

As the spoiler says this article lacks sense of global view, I add some sentences about Japanese agricultural experiment stations.--J. G. Yu (talk) 02:01, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There has been more European material added and three or four continents are represented so the Globalize template was removed.Rgdboer (talk) 02:29, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest[edit]

I work for the National Agricultural Library and I'm editing the United States section of "Locations". The original text reads as follows: The United States Department of Agriculture also maintains several experiment stations, including the Henry A. Wallace Beltsville Agricultural Research Center in Maryland and the U.S. Sheep Experiment Station near Dubois, Idaho. The Beltsville station contains the main building of the National Agricultural Library. The United States National Arboretum in Washington, DC is a division of the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center.

The original text is stated without citation and "experiment stations" is an incorrect term. I will be adding some facts about USDA run research centers along with citations and editing for clarity. Please revert or edit if this is disagreeable. Thanks! Jamie-NAL (talk) 21:42, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
