This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Grasses and Forage-Plants Useful to New Zealand, Vol. 1 The object of this Manual is to place before the practical farmer, in a manner as simple and as free from technical terms as possible, a copious digest of the fullest information available regarding the various grasses and forage-plants best suited for New Zealand. It is proposed to divide the work into three Parts. Part I. will treat of those species which have been or should be introduced from Britain and other countries; Part II., of those kinds that are indigenous to New Zealand; and Part III. will give the particulars of any special experiments of a practical nature which have been made concerning the cultivation as well as respective values of both imported and native kinds for pasture or fodder. As each Part will be distinct in itself, it will in the first place be published separately as soon as it is got ready for the printer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traditional image of New Zealand is one of verdant landscapes with sheep grazing on lush green pastures. Yet this landscape is almost entirely an artificial creation. As Britain became increasingly reliant on its overseas territories for supplies of food and raw material, so all over the Empire indigenous plants were replaced with English grasses to provide the worked up products of pasture - meat, butter, cheese, wool, and hides. In New Zealand this process was carried to an extreme, with forest cleared and swamps drained. How, why and with what consequences did the transformation of New Zealand into these empires of grass occur? 'Seeds of Empire' provides both an exciting appraisal of New Zealand's environmental history and a long overdue exploration of the significance of grass in the processes of sowing empire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In addition to its value as a national resource, the native flora of New Zealand is among the most ancient in the world. Here, two experts draw on their unique knowledge of traditional Maori usage, scientific research, and economic developments in an eye-opening account of past, present, and possible future uses of New Zealand plants. The authors review the materials and products which can be obtained from plants along with their use in landscaping and conservation. Many of the applications they examine are in chemistry (dyestuffs, tannins, resin acids, alkaloids) and horticulture (plants for gardens and conservatories); others concern the extraction or manufacture of medicinal products, food and beverages, fibers, essential oils, and perfumes. Plants may check erosion or slow run-off, grasses can be used for pasture or turf, and microalgae are important oxygenators of sewage ponds. Lichens fix atmospheric nitrogen, vital to the well-being of forests, themselves a source of timber. Informing their account throughout is the authors' belief that the genetic resource of New Zealand's native flora should be tended and maintained, in stark contrast to the traditional European approach of exploitation and replacement with introduced species. Plants are listed with common, scientific, and Maori names, and there is a comprehensive index of chemical terms. The book is illustrated with photographs both of paintings and actual specimens. Broad in its appeal, New Zealand's Economic Native Plants will interest teachers and students of botany, ecology, chemistry, biology, and Maori studies, as well as horticulturalists, historians, environmentalists and chemists.
