Download or read book Terra Preta written by Ute Scheub and published by Greystone Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terra preta is the Portuguese name of a type of soil which is thought to have almost miraculous properties. The newspapers are flooded with reports about "black gold," scientists believe that two of the greatest problems facing the world - climate change and the hunger crisis -- can be solved by it. The beauty of it is that everyone can do something about it because since 2005 the secret of producing this black soil has been revealed -- and it is a secret that seemed to have been lost forever with the downfall of the once thriving Indian culture of the Amazon basin. The recipe is astonishingly simple as all you need are kitchen or garden wastes, charcoal and earthworms, so it can be produced on every balcony or on the smallest of garden plots. The authors set off on a treasure hunt and condensed all the knowledge about the world's most fertile soil into a convenient guidebook. In addition to a sound instruction manual on producing terra preta and organic charcoal (biochar), the handbook covers fundamental principles from climate farming to closed-loop economy. It makes a passionate plea against synthetic fertilizers and genetic technology

Book Synopsis The Fertile Lands of Colorado and Northern New Mexico by : Clarence A. Lyman
Download or read book The Fertile Lands of Colorado and Northern New Mexico written by Clarence A. Lyman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fertile Lands of Colorado and Northern New Mexico: A Concise Description of the Vast Area of Agricultural, Horticulural and Grazing Lands Located on the Line of the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad in Colorado and New Mexico The amount of capital required to take hold of a piece of land under either of these three methods is about the same. Colorado is no new state, but has been settled for more than a quarter of a century. Most of the choicer loca tions have long since been proved up on, irrigated, improved and farmed. But methods of farming have changed. Time and experience have shown that the man on the forty acre farm, or even the ten or twenty acre farm close in, often makes more money than the man with a quarter section of land in a more remote section, so that in all the most fertile valleys a diligent man can find good land, well fertilized and tilled, for sale in small tracts on easy terms. On the other hand, the man who goes further out, buys more land and farms it and gets it into condition has before him the certainty that in time he, too, can sell out three forties of his quarter section at a big profit, retain the other forty and be in a comparatively short time the owner of a highly improved, productive, close-in piece of land, and have money in the bank besides.

Book Synopsis Cuisine and Empire by : Rachel Laudan
Download or read book Cuisine and Empire written by Rachel Laudan and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-04-03 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rachel Laudan tells the remarkable story of the rise and fall of the world’s great cuisines—from the mastery of grain cooking some twenty thousand years ago, to the present—in this superbly researched book. Probing beneath the apparent confusion of dozens of cuisines to reveal the underlying simplicity of the culinary family tree, she shows how periodic seismic shifts in “culinary philosophy”—beliefs about health, the economy, politics, society and the gods—prompted the construction of new cuisines, a handful of which, chosen as the cuisines of empires, came to dominate the globe. Cuisine and Empire shows how merchants, missionaries, and the military took cuisines over mountains, oceans, deserts, and across political frontiers. Laudan’s innovative narrative treats cuisine, like language, clothing, or architecture, as something constructed by humans. By emphasizing how cooking turns farm products into food and by taking the globe rather than the nation as the stage, she challenges the agrarian, romantic, and nationalistic myths that underlie the contemporary food movement.
Download or read book Dirt written by David R. Montgomery and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-05-14 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirt, soil, call it what you want—it's everywhere we go. It is the root of our existence, supporting our feet, our farms, our cities. This fascinating yet disquieting book finds, however, that we are running out of dirt, and it's no laughing matter. An engaging natural and cultural history of soil that sweeps from ancient civilizations to modern times, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations explores the compelling idea that we are—and have long been—using up Earth's soil. Once bare of protective vegetation and exposed to wind and rain, cultivated soils erode bit by bit, slowly enough to be ignored in a single lifetime but fast enough over centuries to limit the lifespan of civilizations. A rich mix of history, archaeology and geology, Dirt traces the role of soil use and abuse in the history of Mesopotamia, Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, China, European colonialism, Central America, and the American push westward. We see how soil has shaped us and we have shaped soil—as society after society has risen, prospered, and plowed through a natural endowment of fertile dirt. David R. Montgomery sees in the recent rise of organic and no-till farming the hope for a new agricultural revolution that might help us avoid the fate of previous civilizations.

This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This survey of ancient levels of lakes, rivers and sea, and changes in stalagmites and sediments shows an astonishing correlation between climate change and rise and fall of civilizations in the Middle East. Warm periods were characterized by aridization, economic crisis and mass migration. Cold periods brought abundant rain, prosperity and settlement. The authors conclude that climate change was the decisive factor in the origins of the "cradle of civilization".
