Download or read book American Agriculture written by R. Douglas Hurt and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: R. Douglas Hurt's brief history of American agriculture, from the prehistoric period through the twentieth century, is written for anyone coming to this subject for the first time. American Agriculture is a story of considerable achievement and success, but it is also a story of greed, racism, and violence. Hurt offers a provocative look at a history that has been shaped by the best and worst of human nature. Here is the background essential for understanding the complexity of American agricultural history, from the transition to commercial agriculture during the colonial period to the failure of government policy following World War II. Complete with maps, drawings, and over seventy splendid photographs, this revised edition closes with an examination of the troubled landscape at the turn of the twenty-first century. It also provides a ready reference to the economic, social, political, scientific, and technological changes that have most affected farming in America and the contributions of African Americans, Native Americans, and women. This survey will serve as a text for courses in the history of American agriculture and rural studies as well as a supplementary text for economic history and rural sociology courses.

Download or read book Evolution of American Agriculture Classic Reprint written by Abner Woodruff and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution of American Agriculture This is not intended so much as an introduction to the book, but rather to acquaint the reader with the organization which makes this interesting little volume possible, and promises the likelihood of more and greater works - it being the intention to publish similar hand-books on all the basic industries. The book does not purport to be a history of the agricultural industry, but merely a condensed story of the evolution of the tools, the machinery, and the remarkable modern methods of agriculture, horticulture, cattle raising, etc., presenting the won derful development of the production of all things essential to the life and happiness of people, the con trol of which by all the people would make the world a good place in which to live. Incidentally herein is shown the way in which corporations have grown and gigantic trusts have been formed, privately owning vast tracts of land, immense implement factories, stock yards, cold stor age and canning plants; also the mines and rail roads, thus controlling the necessities of life of which food stuff forms the greater part. But nearly all things are within the greedy grasp of these com bined capitalists. These vicious institutions are sap ping the very life blood of the human race.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Changes in American Farming This study was undertaken in the belief that a first requisite for intelligent action on our peacetime production problems is an understanding of the nature and strength of the forces that have shaped the course of agricultural production in recent years. These forces will continue to influence production in the years to come. But new forces will be injected. Some of these are already on the horizon - the mechanical cotton picker is an example. Others cannot be foreseen. But constant change must be expected; and agriculture must adapt itself to changes that are inevitable and, for the most part, desirable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Natural History of the Farm: A Guide to the Practical Study of the Sources of Our Living in Wild Nature A little earlier there lived in your locality a race of red men whose cruder tools and weapons were made of int, of bone and of copper; who planted native seeds (among them the maize, the squash, and the potato) and whose traditions were mainly of war and of the chase. These were indeed children of nature, dependent upon their own hands for obtaining from mother earth all their sustenance. There was little division of labor among them. Each must know (at least, each family must know) how to gather and how to prepare as well as how to use. Today you live largely on the products of the labors of others. You get your food, not with sickle and ail and Spear, but with a can-opener, and you eat it without even an inkling of where it grew. So many hands have intervened between the getting and the using of all things needful, that some factory is thought of as the source of them instead of mother earth. Suppose that in order to realize how you have lost connection, you step out into the wildwood empty handed, and look about you. Choose and say what you will have of all you see before you for your next meal? Where will you find your next suit of clothes and what will it be like? Ah, could you even improvise a wrapping, and a string with which to tie it, from what wild nature o ers you?
