Synopsis
Excerpt from The Prize System: As Applied to Small Farmers in Ireland
IN most parts of Ireland the agricultural practices of the small farmers are very defective. In some places they they are quite primitive. Vast numbers of the occupiers are very poor, while wide areas of land are not yielding a fourth of the produce which could be obtained from them.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines agricultural practices implemented across various parts of Ireland in the 1870s. The author, an experienced agricultural expert from the era, details the improvements made when the Spencer Prize System was implemented in various farming districts. Prior to the introduction of the prize system, the author surveys typical Irish farming methods of the period. The author argues that the prize system, when implemented correctly, led to vastly improved farming techniques and a significant increase in revenue and standard of living for those participating in the program. Examples of specific farmers from the program are highlighted, demonstrating the massive gains that were made in a relatively short period. The author ultimately endorses the wider use of such programs to improve the nation's agricultural output and thus the quality of life for the population at large. 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. Seller Inventory # 9780266028574_0
