Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rothamsted Experiments: Being an Account of Some of the Results of the Agricultural Investigations, Conducted at Rothamsted in the Field, the Feeding Shed, and the Laboratory Over a Period of Fifty Years The genius of the individual, we are told, is the birthright of mankind. An unostentatious but gifted squire, who has lived an industrious and happy life in the English county of Hertford, has by his genius and public spirit given to the world an inheritance so goodly that its worth can hardly be over-estimated. It is sometimes remarked as curious that while on the continent of Europe and in America there are many Agricultural Experiment Stations, Great Britain, which for centuries has led the van in agricultural progress, can claim to have had for any considerable period of time but one extensive centre of original research. It is equally remarkable that the one extensive and important Experimental Station which Britain does possess should be the oldest in existence, and that it has probably done more solid work for the advancement of agriculture than all its foreign compeers put together. In the world of science the position of Rothamsted is unique. For more than half a century it has been the largest and most systematically conducted Agricultural Experiment Station in the universe. Abroad, as at home, Rothamsted has become a household word. So much accustomed are agriculturists and scientists to speak and think of Rothamsted as a national institution, that it is not often realised that it is absolutely and entirely the undertaking of a private citizen.
