New Mexico produced more than 53,000 tons of its most famous crop during the last growing season. Chili is one of the official state vegetables; in 2014, the state even adopted its own trademark and certification program to protect the reputation and integrity of its signature crop.
The numbers released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the New Mexico Department of Agriculture show that more than 90% of the chili produced in 2022 was of the green variety.
