Abstract

As supplementary to the article on the cultivation of woad, by Messrs. Darwin and Meldola, in NATURE for November 12, it may further be stated that this plant has been grown besides at Parson Drove, at Boston, Wyberton, and Algarkirk, in the Lincolnshire Fenland, for a very long period. An account of its cultivation, with details of the process and preparing it for use, will be found in Arthur Young's “Agricultural Survey of Lincolnshire,” published at the end of the last century.
