Transactions of the State Agricultural Society of Michigan

By Michigan state agricultural society

Subjects: Societies, Agriculture, Michigan Agriculture

Description: This is of interest partly for the way it shows how government at all levels in Michigan, from the state’s earliest days, promoted a scientific approach to agriculture by Michigan farmers. Through local societies, county and state fairs, and various modes of education, the most advanced practices of the day were collected, discussed and disseminated. Participation was open to anyone.
