Farm Land Development, Present and Future (Classic Reprint): By Clearing, Drainage, and Irrigation - Couverture souple
Synopsis
This book maps out the history of land development in the United States, looking particularly at the clearing of forests and the drainage and irrigation of land for agricultural use. The author goes back to the days of colonial settlement and follows the westward push as new land was opened up to farming. The author notes that even in the earliest days, there was always far more land available for agriculture than could actually be farmed, and that this held true up until the present day. In addition to providing a wealth of historical information, this book also delves into the challenges and opportunities that land development presented to farmers and land speculators. The author points out that land development was often a risky and expensive undertaking, but that it could also be very rewarding. The book concludes by arguing that land development will continue to be an important part of the American economy, even as the country's agricultural landscape continues to change.
