Abstract
GREAT BRITAIN is an industrial country; but the British Empire, of which it is the head and centre, is an Empire of agriculture, and of extraordinary various agriculture conducted under extraordinarily various conditions. At first sight there is little in common between the production of wheat, livestock, or fruit in England and the great Dominions, the growing of rubber in Malaya, of the oil-palm or ground-nut in India and West Africa, and of the sugar-cane or banana in the West Indies. But in truth all crop- or fruitgrowing and all livestock husbandry rest on the same fundamental principles, though their application may present a very different problem in different countries; and therefore all agriculture has at least one common interest—the elucidation of those principles.
