Dabney, Jr., Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, Before the Farmers' Institute, Held Under the Auspices of the Virginia State Board of Agriculture, at Ashland, Va., June 2, 1896 Many new crops have been introduced which promise to bring in large revenues for their growers. Among them may be mentioned peanuts, which has assumed great importance as a field crop in Vir ginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida, and also as an article of export; and hops, recently introduced in North Carolina. Some old crops have received a wonderful extension and an importance that was entirely unexpected. There is no better illustration of the progress made in agriculture in the South than is shown in the results of rice culture in the State of Lou1s1ana Since 1860. Prior to that time South Carolina produced pounds, or two-thirds of the rice crop of the United States, the product of all the States being 000 pounds. The same year Louisiana's contribution to the crop amounted to only pounds. In 1893 Louisiana had not only far out stripped South Carolina as the leading rice-producing State, but lacked only a few million pounds of producing as much as the entire country in 1860, the total product of Louisiana that year having been 000 pounds. With these handsome contributions from Louisiana the rice crop of the United States has been increased from pounds in 1860, the maximum under the old regime, to pounds in 1893. In 1895, the total imports of rice into the United States, exclusive of rice flour and meal and broken rice, amounted to pounds. In View of the statements that are made as to the amount of land that may be brought under rice culture in Louisiana and Texas it is not unreasonable to conclude that within a few years the United States will be independent of other countries for its supply of this important arti cle of food.

Download or read book Cotton Fields No More written by Gilbert C. Fite and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No general history of southern farming since the end of slavery has been published until now. For the first time, Gilbert C. Fite has drawn together the many threads that make up commercial agricultural development in the eleven states of the old Confederacy, to explain why agricultural change was so slow in the South, and then to show how the agents of change worked after 1933 to destroy the old and produce a new agriculture. Fite traces the decline and departure of King Cotton as the hard taskmaster of the region, and the replacement of cotton by a somewhat more democratically rewarding group of farm products: poultry, cattle, swine; soybeans; citrus and other fruits; vegetables; rice; dairy products; and forest products. He shows how such crop changes were related to other developments, such as the rise of a capital base in the South, mainly after World War II; technological innovation in farming equipment; and urbanization and regional population shifts. Based largely upon primary sources, Cotton Fields No More will become the standard work on post-Civil War agriculture in the South. It will be welcomed by students of the American South and of United States agriculture, economic, and social history.
