Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Agricultural Resources of the Punjab: Being a Memorandum on the Application of the Waste Waters of the Punjab to Purposes of Irrigation The view of the agricultural resources of the Punjab submitted, is a general view only, and no attempt has been made to refine on data for which rigid accuracy is not claimed. There was no time, no opportunity, for those minute surveys and preliminary investigations which would naturally precede the actual execution of such works as are suggested. But, if the general value of the important acquisition now made be established, and its improvement forwarded, the author´s object will be fully accomplished. It must necessarily be an object of interest, both to the Indian and Home governments, to open the Punjab freely to British commerce. The works suggested in this paper, although primarily agricultural, may yet be made to promote commercial interests, in a very important measure. Independently of the effect they would have in exciting and increasing the demand for English goods, by augmenting largely the wealth of the agricultural classes, - by far the largest body of consumers in the kingdom, - the canals would facilitate transit just at those points where the rivers of the Punjab cease to be available, or, if available, are so only with great difficulty and delay.
