Publisher's Synopsis
"A Study of the Effects of Freezes on Citrus in California" by Herbert John Webber offers a detailed examination of the impact of freezing temperatures on citrus crops in California during the early 20th century. This work provides valuable insights into the vulnerabilities of citrus cultivation to natural disasters, particularly freezes, and explores the strategies employed to mitigate their effects.
Webber's study is a resource for agricultural historians, environmental scientists, and anyone interested in the historical challenges faced by California's citrus industry. It delves into the specific damage caused by freezes, the geographical variations in their impact, and the methods used to protect citrus groves. This book remains relevant for understanding the ongoing challenges of agriculture in the face of climate variability and the importance of informed agricultural practices.
