Abstract
|
:
|
"The Agricultural Revolution of the 20th Century documents the development of modern agriculture in a comprehensive and understandable format that reads like a story. The authors provide the context and historical gaps of agricultural development often omitted in traditional texts."

"This book will be of interest to college students of agriculture and sociology, high school students of vocational agriculture, members of the American Agricultural Economics Association, people who have a long-standing background in agriculture and are nostalgic for the way things were, and other readers interested in agriculture during the 20th century. Photographs complement the text, illustrating changes that have taken place and contrasting past practices with modern technology."--BOOK JACKET
