Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Agricultural Organisation Its Rise, Principles and Practice, Abroad and at Home
The extent to which agricultural organisation, in some or other of its manifold phases, has been adopted in recent years in almost every civilised country on the face of the globe constitutes one Of the most remarkable of economical developments, and one that has, besides, had considerable bearing on general social conditions. Of the greatest and most direct interest to those actually engaged in agriculture, the subject is also one that must appeal strongly to all who are in any way interested in the progress of nations and the story of how so remarkable a movement was brought about, and Of the results to which it has already led, should appeal no less to the average Citizen than to the working farmer. It should, further, lead to the conviction that, when so many countries throughout the world which look to the United Kingdom as the best market for their surplus produce are both increasing the volume thereofr and strengthening their economic position, it is a matter of Special importance that British producers should enquire what are the special advantages which (apart from Climatic or other conditions not capable of reproduction here) their foreign competitors have secured for themselves from effective organisation, and to what extent the example set by the foreigner Should be followed by the British farmer, alike in the defence and for the promotion of his own interests.
