Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agriculture After the War Some of my friends will consider that I have been unjust to the farmers of the country, and will refuse to accept my assurance that they are among the minority whose standard of work I desire to see universal. But I am not out to award either praise or blame I want to arrive at the facts and ensure their examination from the point of view of the national needs. A man may be a first-rate farmer as regards his own personal success and yet be pursuing a policy inimical to the ultimate welfare of the State. Before one attaches any blame to the current race of farmers one must consider the extraordinary crisis through which they have passed in the last thirty years without any attention or assistance from the State, then one will be more inclined to praise them for having contrived to remain in existence at all.

This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Business of Agriculture During the War and After Urban dwellers ordinarily devote very little thought to rural districts an to sources of food supply. Heretofore they have not had to think much about food. If it is abundant, as it usually is, they take it for granted. If it becomes scarce, they develop hysteria and an amazing capacity for making sugges tions. Within the last year, city people have manifested an intense interest in food, and, not knowing their Government, some of them have developed the highly interesting proposal that some Government agency should be created to give atten tion to production. They have seen windows placarded and papers filled with pleas for conservation, for investments in Liberty Bonds, and for subscriptions to the Red Cross. They have wondered why they have not seen similar evidence of activity in the field of production. They do not know of the thousands of men and women quietly working in every rural community of the Nation and the millions of bulletins and circulars dealing with the problems from hundreds of angles. They forget that the field of work lies outside the city. They do not recognize that both the problem and the method are different.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Peace Can Mean to American Farmers: Post-War Agriculture and Employment Farm leaders and farm people have worked hard for more than 3 years to expand and adjust agricultural production to meet the exacting demands of war. Farmers have produced more food and feed than ever before. Now they are justly concerned with their place or role in the post-war world, for ominous signs may be seen on the horizon. Underlying this apprehension of the future is the deep awareness that agriculture is not only more productive but is also more prosperous now than at any previous time. The war restored agricultural prosperity, it raised farm incomes, and it renewed in farm people a feeling of pride in their work.

This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agriculture and Food Supply in France During the War IN the autumn of 1914, when the scientific study of the effects of war upon modern life passed suddenly from theory to history, the Division Of Economics and History of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace proposed to adjust the program of its re searches to the new and altered problems which the war presented. The existing program, which had been prepared as the result of a conference of economists held at Berne in 1911, and which dealt with the facts then at hand, had just begun to show the quality of its contributions; but for many reasons it could no longer be fol lowed out. A plan was therefore drawn up at the request of the Director of the Division, in which it was proposed, by means Of an historical survey, to attempt to measure the economic cost of the war and the displacement which it was causing in the processes of civilization. Such an 'economic and Social History Of the World War, ' it was felt, if undertaken by men of judicial temper and ade quate training, might ultimately, by reason of its scientific Obliga tions to truth, furnish data for the forming Of sound public opinion, and thus contribute fundamentally toward the aims of an institu tion dedicated to the cause Of international peace.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effects of the Great War Upon Agriculture in the United States and Great Britain Of course, the difficulty was seen early by the countries at war and measures were taken not only to increase their own pro duction, but to reduce consumption as far as possible. Before we entered the war we had become, in a large degree, the source of the world's food supply. On our entry the duty of feeding the world lay upon us still more heavily, for we had not only to care for our people at home, but for our soldiers abroad, and supply a large part of the food of our allies. Here, as in Great Britain, the measures were of two kinds, the stimulation of production and conservation in consumption.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wartime Farming on the Northern Great Plains Here is one of the largest and most important agricultural regions of the world. Its grain and its cattle have been outstanding articles of commerce in world markets for half a century. Today, they are more vital than ever before. They are sinews of war. Total war requires total production. This is as true of agriculture as it is of industry. Every man, every machine, every acre of our vast agricultural plant must produce its share of supplies for fighting men, for men and women at work, and for our allies in arms. American agriculture must in the years just ahead produce more than it ever has before. The Department of Agriculture has set produc tion goals never before reached in all our his tory.

Download or read book Foreign Agriculture written by United States Department Of Agriculture and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Agriculture: May 1941 Though the full and ultimate effects upon American agriculture of the current world-wide economic conflict depend on the length and intensity of the war, it is already certain that the control systems instituted by governmental decree in the belligerent countries are going to be most important to both producers and consumers of agricultural products in every continent. The American farmer, after living through the fluctuations of demand for agricultural products during and following the war of 1914-1918, is perhaps more conscious than his fellow-citizen in commerce or industry that war may have an important effect on the individual's own prosperity and 'social well-being. The farmer is also well informed of the misery that accompanies the present war. However, because of his Government's agricultural adjustment pro gram, he has not felt the full effects of this economic war. It is believed that agriculture cannot be assured the fullest possible protec tion from the effects of the belligerent control measures unless itis known precisely what those measures are and how they operate. Therefore it is intended, in a series of studies, to attempt to segregate the various types of war measures and controls in order to facilitate the determination of their effects on agriculture. Chithe one hand there are measures intended to aid the economy of the country enacting the con trols, which are detrimental to other countries. These will be singled out so that every effort may be made to counteract their adverse effects in the post-war period. (dn the other hand there are governmental measures which tend to mitigate the economic effects of war and other social disturbances. 'these will subsequently be analyzed in an endeavor to ascertain the ways in which they might be utilized in time of peace to promote more equitable distribution of raw materials.

This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Secretary of Agriculture, 1944 Properly and indeed imperatively, however, preparation for the peace extends beyond the job of making sure that with our allies we shall be able to dictate the terms. It includes planning for the change-over. Such planning has immediate as well as prospective value. It lessens worry over peace problems, with the result that people do a better war job. In addition, it smoothes the way for peacetime readjustments. Farmers and farm agencies have therefore done some post-war plan ning from the very beginning of the war effort. As the victory draws nearer they give more and more attention to the problem. Par tial readjustment will be in order as soon as Germany has been de feated. Obviously, even if the war with Japan continues for months or longer after the elimination of Germany, it will not then require the vast production that was necessary when we also had Germany and all its satellites to beat. With each advance of the allied forces, the tempo of the peace-planning must advance, lest when the war is over, the country fall into the pit it fell into after World War I. In jus tice to farmers, and also in the interests of our whole population, we must have an adequate and sound post-war program, based from the agricultural point of view on the fact that agriculture's welfare is inseparable from the welfare of the country as a whole, which in turn depends greatly on the condition of industry, agriculture, and trade throughout the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Peace Can Mean to American Farmers: Agricultural Policy If a farm program is to aim at the well-being of all farm people, its application cannot be restricted to those who already produce the most and follow the best soil-management practices; and it will be concerned with prices, markets, and land only insofar as they affect human well being. The necessity for a variety of approaches so as to deal with the problems of all farm people under a full-employment situation may be seen more clearly if each of the three major groups of problems is discussed separately.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ireland, Agriculture and the War: An Open Letter to Irish Farmers I feel impelled this week to speak to you personally and directly on the circumstances brought about by the war which affect you as farmers, because from reports which have reached me by many channels, public and private, I am certain that immense numbers of you are unaware of, or do not realise, the new situation created, and that time is hurrying on rapidly to a point where a light will beat strongly on you and all your doings and the attention of the nation will be concentrated upon your class and the Way in which you discharge your functions in the national life. You all know that half the world is at war. Many of you realise it painfully and intimately through brothers, sons, kin or friends who are actual participants in the fighting. In that sense you need no more reminder that the world is at war, but you do not yet realise that you are more than onlookers, that you are called on to be participators in the struggle, not as combatants, but as part of that other noble army whose business it is in many ways to heal up the wounds of the combatants, to make good the wastage in society, and to ameliorate the evil effects of the war. What those working under the Red Cross do for all combatants alike, without distino tion betwe-em friend or foe of their country, you are called upon to do for society at large. Your occupation, always necessary in times of peace, in time of war, in periods of great human necessity stands out prominently and assumes its eternal position as the foremost, the most necessary, of all human occupations. The longer war continues the more does farming, normally hidden behind a hundred other occupations, come to the front. Men think little in times of plenty of the labours which bring them the food that enables them to live and work; but let there be shortage and a wild apprehension springs up in society and people realise that it is upon you and your labours that they depend altogether. You become the staff on which they lean. Every[ other occupation almost might disappear, but' yours never, without humanity disappearing! And any failure of yours in time of necessity to equal the need of the world inflicts the most terrible suffering on the world. Any neglect of duty in a time of necessity would be as ignoble as the act of a Red Cross contingent who on the battlefield neglected to attend to the wounded. The longer the war continues the more insistent will be the claims of the world upon you who can farm, you over whose fields no armies have marched, to supply the shortage of food brought about by the withdrawal of millions of your class in Europe to take part in a redder reaping than any the world has hitherto known.
