This antiquarian text contains a guide to the methods and equipment of
livestock keeping, with specific information on the culture and
management of grass lands. This thorough treatise offers a wealth of
useful and interesting information on the subject, and will be of
considerable value to modern farmers - and to anyone with a general
interest in grass land management. Although old, much of the information
is timeless, making this a great addition to agricultural libraries. The
chapters of this volume include: 'On the Size and Shape of Fields', 'On
Fences', 'On Pasture Land', 'On Meadow Land', 'On the Culture of Grass
Land', 'On Hay-Making', 'On Stacking Hay', 'On Ensilage', 'On
Impediments to the Scythe', 'On the Eradication of Weeds', etcetera. We
are proud to republish this vintage text, now complete with a new and
specially commissioned introduction on farming.
