The Plant Quarantine and Control Administration: Its History, Activities and Organization - Softcover
Synopsis
"The Plant Quarantine and Control Administration: Its History, Activities and Organization" provides a comprehensive examination of the federal efforts to protect American agriculture from invasive pests and plant diseases. Written by Gustavus A. Weber, this scholarly study details the evolution of the Plant Quarantine and Control Administration, outlining its regulatory framework, operational structure, and the vital role it played in safeguarding the nation's natural resources during the early twentieth century.
The book explores the legislative history leading to the establishment of the administration and delves into its specific functions, including inspection services, enforcement of quarantine laws, and the scientific methodologies employed to prevent the spread of harmful organisms. As a detailed service monograph, this work serves as an essential historical record of administrative law and agricultural policy. Readers interested in the history of science, environmental regulation, and the development of public policy will find this an invaluable resource. By documenting the intersection of biology and bureaucracy, Weber highlights the complexities of managing biological risks in a developing regulatory landscape.
