Potash and Paying Crops: The Results of the Latest Scientific Investigations in Germany (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Potash and Paying Crops: The Results of the Latest Scientific Investigations in Germany
The prosperity of any agricultural country depends upon the prosperity of its agricultural community, and the latter, in turn, depends upon the quantity and the quality of the crops raised on its land. That country takes the lead, in the long run, which raises on a given area twice as much as another country; that farmer is more prosperous who raises on a ten-acre field as much, if not more, than another does on twenty acres. This plain, simple and self-evident consideration establishes at once the pre-emi nent position which in our days agricultural science should, and as a matter of fact, does occupy in civilized countries. For, the ultimate object of all scientific research, of all work in the laboratory, and of all field experiments, is not so much the unearthing of a scientific truth as rather the practical application of scientific truths to farming, so as to render this pursuit more profitable and less uncertain.
