Historical Note
The Tri-University Consortium was founded in 1972 "to help achieve a substantial increase in non-traditional agricultural exports as a base for overall Uruguayan economic expansion." The three American universities involved were Michigan State University, Pennsylvania State University (lead institution), and Texas A & M University. The project was funded by the United States Agency for International Development.
Scope and Contents note
The records include an end of tour report written by Angus Howitt, entomology professor at Michigan State University. The report details his work in fruit and vegetable pests to help Uruguay export quality produce. Also included is an unpublished annual report for 1975.
