New Mexico Chile Industry Spurs Diverse Agriculture Growth
Hobson and others describe chile pepper farming expanding since the 1960s, driven by dye shortages and NAFTA competition.

Pecan farming in Las Cruces area shows solid yields and climate advantages despite alternate bearing and cold needs. County agriculture stats show mixed gains in chile, cotton, corn, sorghum, hay, and sheep receipts in Chaves County.
