Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Diseases of Crops and Their Remedies: A Handbook of Economic Biology for Farmers and Students As economic biology and pathology are subjects worthy of the deepest study on the part of farmers, market-gardeners, and others interested in the cultivation of crops, - my aim has been to make this little volume a useful companion to those who are interested in the diseases of crops caused by the attacks of parasitic insects and fungi. The annual loss from the ravages of insects and fungi upon growing crops is beyond calculation; but it may be estimated that on the average at least "one-sixth" of the entire yield of farm-crops, hop-gardens, etc., is sacrificed through the ravages of insect and fungoïd pests. "As actual instances of the enormous losses which farmers sustain through the ravages of insects, it may be mentioned that Miss Ormerod estimated, for the season of 1881 alone, the financial loss represented by the cost of seed and the expenses of sowing and re-sowing the turnip crop destroyed by the ´turnip-fly´ in twenty-two English and eleven Scotch counties, amounted to over half a million pounds sterling."
