Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a unique perspective on the controversy surrounding the discovery of Peruvian cotton by the author. The author had travelled widely in Asia, including the valleys of the Peruvian coast, and was struck by the similarity of the climate in the two regions. Based on his…observations, he proposed that the Peruvian cotton plant would thrive in the dry climate of the eastern side of the Madras Presidency, India, despite the fact that North American cotton was not doing well there. The author imported cotton seeds from Peru and organized trials with the Madras Government. He faced many challenges, including worm infestations and adverse weather conditions, but his efforts ultimately proved successful. This book provides a detailed account of the author's work and the challenges he faced, offering valuable insights into the history of cotton cultivation in India and the potential of Peruvian cotton as a cash crop. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
