Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1984, this book provides an introduction to the history of agriculture in Western Europe, states the case for government intervention and analyses the operation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) during the late 20th Century. It concludes that the costs of the policy fell heavily on the poorer consumers, food prices were artificially high and surpluses sold at a loss on the world markets. In the light of Britain’s departure from the EU and the EU CAP this book, which also examined the prospects for the future has an enduring relevance.

Download or read book The Development of Modern Agriculture written by J. Martin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-03-16 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly readable and up-to-date history provides an informative critique of the causes and consequences of the modern agricultural revolution, since the agricultural depression of the inter-war period. This includes evaluating the impact of the Second World War, the post-war scientific and technological revolutions and the metamorphosis in the role of the state. It also examines the impact of the Common Agricultural Policy and the more recent attempts to rationalize production. The book provides the essential background for an objective appreciation of modern agricultural development.

Download or read book Plant Breeding: Past, Present and Future written by John E. Bradshaw and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to help plant breeders by reviewing past achievements, currently successful practices, and emerging methods and techniques. Theoretical considerations are also presented to strike the right balance between being as simple as possible but as complex as necessary. The United Nations predicts that the global human population will continue rising to 9.0 billion by 2050. World food production will need to increase between 70-100 per cent in just 40 years. First generation bio-fuels are also using crops and cropland to produce energy rather than food. In addition, land area used for agriculture may remain static or even decrease as a result of degradation and climate change, despite more land being theoretically available, unless crops can be bred which tolerate associated abiotic stresses. Lastly, it is unlikely that steps can be taken to mitigate all of the climate change predicted to occur by 2050, and beyond, and hence adaptation of farming systems and crop production will be required to reduce predicted negative effects on yields that will occur without crop adaptation. Substantial progress will therefore be required in bridging the yield gap between what is currently achieved per unit of land and what should be possible in future, with the best farming methods and best storage and transportation of food, given the availability of suitably adapted cultivars, including adaptation to climate change. My book is divided into four parts: Part I is an historical introduction; Part II deals with the origin of genetic variation by mutation and recombination of DNA; Part III explains how the mating system of a crop species determines the genetic structure of its landraces; Part IV considers the three complementary options for future progress: use of sexual reproduction in further conventional breeding, base broadening and introgression; mutation breeding; and genetically modified crops.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the seemingly mundane Northern farm of early America and the people who sought to improve its productivity and efficiency, Emily Pawley finds a world rich with innovative practices and marked by a developing interrelationship between scientific knowledge, industrial methods, and capitalism. Agricultural "improvers" became increasingly scientistic, driving tremendous increases in the range and volume of agricultural output-and transforming American conceptions of expertise, success, and exploitation. Pawley's focus on soil, fertilizer, apples, mulberries, agricultural fairs, and experimental stations shows each nominally dull subject to have been an area of intellectual ferment and sharp contestation: mercantile, epistemological, and otherwise"--

This book was released on 2016-07-31 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origin of England and English language is better done by historians. However, England is a one of the country in United Kingdom. The remaining countries that make up United Kingdom is Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. It is a small but mighty kingdom that traverse all nooks and corners of the world in colonial past, present and the future. In view of the fact that all nations of the world that have ever had direct or indirect English touch behaves similar to the English men, including forgetting their mother tongue which the English people have refused to forget. The home base of the country is an island within 51° 441; 0° 261, 32 OD. Exactly lying at the center of the earth (the equator) - The Greenwich Meridian. Hence, the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) from where other geographical times were derived. All forces of nature attract to the equator. Hence, all countries of the world are attracted to Greenwich(England in quote). Their Roman past has shaped their present and the future and may have informed the past, present and future. Igboji (2015) described fairly five periods of English agriculture. The prehistoric agriculture, time whenpredominantly all English land was regarded as pristine woodland (6000 BC to 1200 AD). The historic agriculture, period dominated by traditional shepherds and husbandmen whose activities included returning of wheat straw to the land during seebbed preparation and trying of certain innovations like use of red clover seeds imported from Holland to enrich soil fertility (1201 1699 AD). The agricultural revolution marked by the use of agricultural equipment like ploughs, harrow, thresher, chemical fertilizer and soil drainage technology, improved seeds in intensive and extensive arable and pastoral farming (1700 -1904 AD). The post agricultural revolution, marked by the enclosure of open fields, common lands, meadows and wastes, conversion of land to more profitable uses, example laying of old arable land to permanent pasture or long leys, ploughing and putting under suitable rotation common and rough hills overgrown with weeds or that was bare through overgrazing (1905 to 1986 AD). The green planet, marked by environmental movements - earth first, green peace, green party and national and international treaties, as well as code of conduct for protection and preservation of air, water and soil resources (1987 to 2025 AD). The post green planet, a period where some environmental problems are envisaged ranging from higher greenhouse gases scenario and climate change (2026 - 2055 AD). The English generations of eight thousand years ago underestimated the English generation of the 21st century. Likewise, the 21st century English generation can never underestimate the next 8000 years generation. What manner ofagriculture and agricultural landscape. Will there be farming in sea and ocean floor, in space, in the moon, stars and the sun. What manner of agriculture, crops, labour, price and land use. What type of soil and climate shall we have then. Shall there be still United Kingdom with four countries, European Union. Where will their next empire extend to. What type of world. Will there be a world of one citizen. World without borders or polarization. World free of nuclear proliferation and warheads. What manner of citizens and leaders shall the world hold by the next 8000 of English culture and diversity. Will global warming start and end at the Greenwich as the centre of the world. What implications for humanity. To me only God has the magic key and he lives after the sun but present everywhere in all realm and rule over nations and principalities. Since English scientist have failed to produce human blood, semen and egg irrespective of their feat in invitro-fertilisation, cloning, genetic modifications and high techs the solution still lies on God by atheists, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Sikhs, pagans and those who believe only in themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Histories of Technology, the Environment and Modern Britain brings together historians with a wide range of interests to take a uniquely wide-lens view of how technology and the environment have been intimately and irreversibly entangled in Britain over the last 300 years. It combines, for the first time, two perspectives with much to say about Britain since the industrial revolution: the history of technology and environmental history. Technologies are modified environments, just as nature is to varying extents engineered. Furthermore, technologies and our living and non-living environment are both predominant material forms of organisation – and self-organisation – that surround and make us. Both have changed over time, in intersecting ways. Technologies discussed in the collection include bulldozers, submarine cables, automobiles, flood barriers, medical devices, museum displays and biotechnologies. Environments investigated include bogs, cities, farms, places of natural beauty and pollution, land and sea. The book explores this diversity but also offers an integrated framework for understanding these intersections.
