Summary
New Mexico’s agriculture is getting a major boost with the Agricultural Workforce Development Program now accepting applications—helping farms and ranches cover up to 50% of intern wages (max $15K per intern) for 130+ hour placements, with up to three interns per year. Interns must be 18+, and businesses handle recruitment. Applications close March 31, 2027, or when funds run out; internships start July 1, 2026, and end May 31, 2027. This long-running initiative is a win-win: fresh talent gains hands-on experience while farms get crucial support to grow their teams and secure the future of the industry.
