The preparation of this handbook was undertaken because of the great lack of readily available and reliable information on the subject in English scientific literature. Many of the facts were known to a few interested persons but many others were so scattered here and there in technical reports and journals that they were scarcely known even to expert chemists and botanists. The bringing of this information together in some sort of order has involved considerable labour extending over several years but if the volume be found helpful to those for whose use it has been prepared I shall feel more than gratified. That the subject is of importance is fully realised by farmers and veterinary surgeons alike for the annual loss of stock due to poisonous plants though not ascertainable is undoubtedly considerable. It was felt that notes on mechanical injury caused by plants and on the influence of plants and on milk might usefully be included as in some degree related to poisoning this has the reform been done. One the other hand a number of cultivated plants (e.g. Rhus Wistaria) which are poisonous have not been included because exotic and hardly likely to be eaten by stock. Fungi generally also find no place in the volume as they are sufficiently extensive to deserve a volume to themselves and are far less readily identified than flowering plants. The dividing line between plants which are actually poisonous and those which are only suspected is far from clear but a division was considered desirable for the convenience of the reader and an endeavour has been made to give a sound but brief statement as to the present information on plants poisonous to live stock with symptoms toxic principles and a list of the more important references to the bibliography in relation to each plant included. 120 pp.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed discussion of the potential benefits of growing lupins on poor light lands in order to bring these areas back into agricultural use. The author, an experienced agricultural organiser, explores how lupins can improve soil quality and fertility, making it more suitable for growing other crops and pastures. The book delves into the historical use of lupins as a green manure crop and their ability to fix nitrogen in the soil. It also discusses the challenges of growing lupins, such as their susceptibility to pests and diseases, and provides practical advice on how to overcome these challenges. The author also shares case studies of successful lupin cultivation projects, demonstrating the potential of this crop to revitalise poor light lands and contribute to sustainable agriculture. The book concludes by highlighting the importance of lupins in the context of increasing food production and food security, making it a valuable resource for farmers, agriculturalists, and policymakers.
