Sinossi
Excerpt from Fallow and Fodder Crops
The study of grass land also pertains to pastoral life rather than to arable land cultivation, while all the plants here enumerated and described are essentially cultivated as crops with the direct aid of ploughing and other tillage operations.
The present work, like that issued last spring, embodies a course of lectures delivered to science teachers at South Kensington. It is intended to assist teachers in their labours, and to indicate the bounds within which a crop may be profitably studied by agriculturists. The subject has been taken up where it was left in '87, and the actual cultivation of crops naturally follows a treatise upon soils and tillages.
