Farming With Green Manures: On Plumgrove Farm (1876) is a book written by Caleb Harlan, an American farmer and agricultural expert. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the use of green manures in farming, with a particular focus on Harlan's own experiences on his Plumgrove Farm.Green manures are crops that are grown specifically to be plowed under and used as a natural fertilizer for the soil. Harlan explains the benefits of using green manures, including increased soil fertility, improved soil structure, and reduced erosion. He also provides detailed instructions on how to select, plant, and manage various types of green manures, including clover, rye, and buckwheat.In addition to practical advice on green manuring, the book also includes discussions on related topics such as crop rotation, soil conservation, and the use of livestock in farming. Harlan's writing is clear and concise, making the book accessible to both experienced farmers and those new to the practice of green manuring.Overall, Farming With Green Manures: On Plumgrove Farm (1876) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in sustainable agriculture and the use of natural fertilizers in farming.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
