Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: New. One of the main features of crop production at the present day is waste. Except in the Far East, where the large indigenous population has to be fed from the produce of the country-side, little is being done to utilize completely the by-products of the farm in maintaining the fertility of the soil. The ever-growing supplies of agricultural produce, needed by industry and trade, have been provided either by taking up new land or by the purchase of artificial manures. Both these methods are uneconomic. The exploitation of virgin soil is a form of plunder. Any expenditure on fertilizers which can be avoided raises the cost of production, and therefore reduces the margin of profit. It needs no argument to urge that, in maintaining the fertility of the soil, the most careful attention should be paid to the utilization of the waste products of agriculture itself before any demands are made on capital natural or acquired.

"For the last twenty-six years, the senior author has been engaged in the study of crop production in India and in devising means by which the produce of the soil could be increased by methods within the resources of the small holder. Improved varieties plus better soil conditions were found to produce an increment up to a hundred per cent or even more. By welding the care of the manure heap, green-manuring and the preparation of artificial farmyard manure into a single process very marked progress was accomplished at the Institute of Plant Industry at Indore, India. This Indore process for the manufacture of humus is described in detail in the following pages. It can be applied to the utilization of all human, animal and vegetable wastes in such a manner that the breeding of flies is prevented, the water and the food-supply of the people safeguarded and the general health of the locality improved. Cleaner and healthier villages will then go hand in hand with heavier crops." - Preface. "Sir Albert Howard (1873-1947) was the first Westerner to document and publish the Indian techniques of sustainable agriculture. Though he journeyed to India to teach Western agricultural techniques he found that the Indians could in fact teach him more. He built on the traditional Indian composting system into what is now known as the Indore method. This book is considered by some as his most important scientific publication. He is grouped, along with Rudolf Steiner, Sir Robert McCarrison and Richard St. Barbe Baker, as one of the key progenitors of the Western Organic agriculture movement." - Wikipedia. xiv, 167 pages. Index, tables and black and white photographic plates. Above-average wear to original navy cloth. Spine slant. Binding intact. No dust jacket, presumably as issued. Faint writing on spine, otherwise no indications of this being a former library copy. A rare example of this profoundly important and influential work.; 8vo.
