Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the effects of reusing old soil in growing carnations and roses, challenging the common practice of replacing soil annually. The author conducted experiments over several years, comparing yields and quality of flowers grown in fresh soil to those grown in soil that had been used for up to 15 years. The results debunk the notion that old soil is inferior and prove that it can be just as productive as new soil, especially when treated with steam, manure, or other fertilizers. The book not only provides practical advice for growers on how to maintain soil health but also contributes to the broader understanding of soil management and plant nutrition. It highlights the importance of considering factors such as soil age, variety, and environmental conditions when making soil management decisions. Ultimately, this book challenges conventional wisdom and offers valuable insights for optimizing flower production and minimizing waste in greenhouse cultivation. 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. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the produce market in Peoria, Illinois during the great depression and up to 1935 in an attempt to describe and explain the challenges facing farmers, wholesalers, and vendors. The author first details how vast shifts in transportation and refrigeration during this era made it possible for distant farming regions to access the same markets as local farms and began to reshape the market. These shifts, coupled with national economic depression, created an uncertain and competitive landscape for the local market, with new problems for its members. The author interviewed consumers, teamsters, and shop owners to provide a comprehensive view of the produce supply chain, from distant producers to the end consumer. The book concludes that local farmers hoping to compete in this evolving landscape would need to embrace new grading and packaging methods and be ready to supply high quality, standardized produce at a competitive price. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
