Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book delves into the development of agriculture as a subject of instruction and investigation at the university level. The author, an Oxford University professor, begins by discussing the historical origins of the field and the challenges it faced in gaining recognition as a legitimate academic discipline. By the late 18th century, agriculture had become a popular topic of interest, leading to the establishment of the first university professorships in the subject. The book then examines the role of government and private institutions in promoting agricultural education, from the creation of the Board of Agriculture in 1800 to the establishment of agricultural colleges and research stations in the 19th century. It highlights the significant influence of individuals such as Arthur Young, Sir Humphrey Davy, and Lawes and Gilbert, who advanced the scientific understanding of agriculture. The author explores the debates surrounding the place of agricultural education in the university curriculum and discusses the different approaches to instruction and research adopted by various universities. He also considers the challenges faced by Oxford University in developing its own agricultural program, given its traditional focus on classical learning. The author concludes by emphasizing the importance of agricultural education and research in meeting the growing challenges of food security and environmental sustainability, arguing that they are essential for ensuring the future prosperity of both rural and urban communities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
