Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book assembles knowledge derived from the author's own experience alongside scientific research on stock-raising and meat production. It was originally conceived to help Australian servicemen take up farming following World War I, and today it remains a practical handbook for farmers looking to improve their meat and wool production. The author discusses the philosophy and science behind animal breeding, noting that excellence in one generation is no guarantee of it in the next. They emphasize the importance of building on the best traits of any given stock through careful mating practices. The idea of blending, in which the traits of two breeds are combined, is contrasted with dominance, in which one set of traits prevails over another when breeding different species. Most importantly, the author advocates patience and attention to detail, and provides a wealth of data and suggested food rations to aid farmers in their pursuit of quality.
