With renovation, this $2 million addition, supported by the National Science Foundation, M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust and several commodity groups, offers faculty and students sophisticated facilities available for plant and insect research and teaching. The remodeled facility also satisfies federal guidelines for work with genetically engineered crop plants and for research on biological control of weeds and pests. Improvements to the greenhouse included:

  • Twenty-two independent greenhouse compartments
  • EPA-approved pesticide spray chamber
  • Plant tissue culture facility
  • One growth chamber with disabled access
  • Two existing growth chambers relocated into the basement
  • Eight walk-in growth rooms constructed in the basement
  • Access corridors enclosed with insect screening and roof vents for fresh air supply
  • Steam to hot water interface replacement
  • Reglazing with improved heat retention
  • Computerized control systems for cooling and heating
  • New cooling systems
  • Supplemental lighting designed for 480 to 2,100 foot-candles in greenhouse compartments
  • New rolling benches
  • Concrete floors and drains throughout

Proposed additions to the Sixth Street facility include:

  • A new classroom
  • Conservatory space for teaching horticulture and forestry cources
  • Additional space for research and teaching

The Panama, founded by James Laidlaw of Muldoon, Idaho, was created to serve the needs for a rugged, hardy range sheep capable of grazing in high-altitude, mountainous terrain.

    In 1988, in memory of James, Frederick M., and James A. “Sandy” Laidlaw, the Laidlaw family established the Laidlaw Panama Sheep Endowment at the University of Idaho. Although the university has no Panamas among its herds at this time, the endowment continues to support teaching and research focused on sheep.

    A term paper submitted by Clark R. Torell while he was a student at the University of Idaho in 1952 describes the history of the Laidlaw family and the Panama sheep breed.

    The Endowment

    In 1988 in memory of James, Frederick M., and James A. “Sandy” Laidlaw, the Laidlaw family established an endowment, the Laidlaw Panama Sheep Endowment, to help support teaching, research and promotional activities and the continuation of the Panama breed at the University of Idaho Sheep Research and Teaching Center.
