Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Cultivation and Manufacture of Indigo in Bengal, 1899 In presenting my first Annual Report, I regret the delay which has occurred, but the work involved in the analyses and experiments has been much greater than I had anticipated. Even now the report is not so complete as I should like it to have been. As will be expected the report deals chiefly with my visit to India, the results of experiments made in Behar, and of analyses of indigo, soils, plants, &c., made in England since my return. I have analysed a great many samples taken at various times during my stay in Behar, but, unfortunately, on account of the heavy rains and floods in September these samples were not as representative as they might have been. Nevertheless, the work has been full of interest, and a considerable amount of valuable information has been gained. I fully believe that the cost of production of indigo in Behar can be materially reduced, and also that the quality in numerous cases may be greatly improved. I left London on the 25th May, 1898, and reached Mozufferpore on the 20th June. As stated in my first Indian Report to the Behar Planters' Association of the 14th July, I spent the first two or three weeks visiting various indigo factories (chiefly in the Champarun district), and thus gained a general knowledge of the present mode of manufacturing indigo. During this period a chemical laboratory was being erected in the compound of the Planters' Club, Mozufferpore, but it was about the end of July before everything was in working order. Some of the apparatus and chemicals did not arrive until later. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Indigo Plantations and Science in Colonial India written by Prakash Kumar and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prakash Kumar documents the history of agricultural indigo, exploring the effects of nineteenth-century globalisation on this colonial industry. Charting the indigo culture from the early modern period to the twentieth century, Kumar discusses how knowledge of indigo culture thrived among peasant traditions on the Indian subcontinent in the early modern period and was then developed by Caribbean planters and French naturalists who codified this knowledge into widely disseminated texts. European planters who settled in Bengal with the establishment of British rule in the late eighteenth century drew on this information. From the nineteenth century, indigo culture became more modern, science-based and expert driven, and with the advent of a cheaper, purer synthetic indigo in 1897, indigo science crossed paths with the colonial state's effort to develop a science for agricultural development. Only at the end of the First World War, when the industrial use of synthetic indigo for textile dyeing and printing became almost universal, did the indigo industry's optimism fade away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Political Economy of Indigo in India, 1580-1930: A Global Perspective Ghulam A. Nadri explores the dynamics of the indigo industry and trade from a long-term perspective and examines the local and global forces that affected the potentialities of production in India and elsewhere and caused periods of boom and slump in the industry. Using the commodity chains conceptual framework he examines the stages in the trajectory of indigo from production to consumption. Nadri shows convincingly that the growth or decline in indigo production and trade in India was a part of the global processes of production, trade, and consumption and that indigo as a global commodity was embedded in the politics of empire and colonial expansion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like cotton, indigo has defied its humble origins. Left alone it might have been a regional plant with minimal reach, a localized way of dyeing textiles, paper, and other goods with a bit of blue. But when blue became the most popular color for the textiles that Britain turned out in large quantities in the eighteenth century, the South Carolina indigo that colored most of this cloth became a major component in transatlantic commodity chains. In Red, White, and Black Make Blue, Andrea Feeser tells the stories of all the peoples who made indigo a key part of the colonial South Carolina experience as she explores indigo's relationships to land use, slave labor, textile production and use, sartorial expression, and fortune building. In the eighteenth century, indigo played a central role in the development of South Carolina. The popularity of the color blue among the upper and lower classes ensured a high demand for indigo, and the climate in the region proved sound for its cultivation. Cheap labor by slaves—both black and Native American—made commoditization of indigo possible. And due to land grabs by colonists from the enslaved or expelled indigenous peoples, the expansion into the backcountry made plenty of land available on which to cultivate the crop. Feeser recounts specific histories—uncovered for the first time during her research—of how the Native Americans and African slaves made the success of indigo in South Carolina possible. She also emphasizes the material culture around particular objects, including maps, prints, paintings, and clothing. Red, White, and Black Make Blue is a fraught and compelling history of both exploitation and empowerment, revealing the legacy of a modest plant with an outsized impact.
