Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Permanent and Temporary Pastures A short paper on ´Permanent Pastures,´ written by my father at the desire of the late Mr. Philip Pusey, appeared in the Journal of the Royal Agricultural Society of England, vol. xxii., part ii. By special permission this paper was afterwards published as a pamphlet, and, having run through eleven editions, the duty of re-editing it fell to me in 1880. At my father´s request I revised and enlarged the work; and two editions, numbering together twenty thousand copies, have since been disposed of. The laying down of land to grass is now a question vital to the interests of agriculture; and it has appeared to me that, instead of further enlarging the pamphlet, a more comprehensive treatment of the subject is necessary. In preparing this volume I have derived valuable assistance from information most readily afforded on certain special subjects by Mr. W. Carruthers, the accomplished Botanist to the Royal Agricultural Society of England. I have found of great practical value the record of ´Agricultural, Botanical, and Chemical Results of Experiments on the Mixed Herbage of Permanent Meadows,´ compiled jointly by Sir J. B. Lawes, Bart., Dr. J. H. Gilbert, and Dr. Maxwell T. Masters, which contains the results of minute and painstaking observations extending over a period of twenty years.
