Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book takes a deep dive into the dynamic relationship between agriculture and the evolution of data systems in the United States. Beginning with early efforts to gather agricultural data in the colonial era, the author traces the development of statistical surveys and the role of agricultural societies in promoting improved farming methods. The book examines the work of Archibald Russell and Henry L. Ellsworth in establishing agricultural data collection within the U.S. Patent Office and the subsequent emergence of annual crop production estimates by state. The author also discusses the influence of Orange Judd and the American Agriculturist in recognizing the need for current monthly information on crop prospects, leading to the establishment of a standardized system of crop reporting. The book sheds light on how the need for reliable agricultural data evolved alongside the transformation of American agriculture in the 19th century, providing valuable insights into the historical foundations of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's statistical programs that continue to inform agricultural policy and decision-making today. 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.
