Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces the reader to the causes and varieties of smut in wheat crops. Additionally, it provides advice and direction for its prevention and eradication. Starting with the author's educated opinion on the characteristics of smut, this treatise explores the soil conditions that give rise to it and suggests a variety of techniques for improving the condition of the soil and thus preventing the occurrence of smut. For instance, the author establishes a connection between worms and grubs and the presence of smut in wheat. The author includes a substantial list of detailed tips, tricks, and methods for treating and reclaiming land likely to produce smutty crops. These methods include proper drainage of land and application of manure and lime to improve the soil's chemical composition. There is also a helpful breakdown of the different types of soil and how they can be improved through the application of manure, marl, and lime. The author's observations and suggestions are based largely on the idea that proper and efficient cultivation is the best way to improve the quality of the land and prevent smut. By examining the quality of the soil and choosing the proper planting and harvesting techniques, the author believes smut will become a thing of the past, and crop yields will see a substantial increase.
