Agricultural History: 18th and 19th Century America

In this episode, our guest, Naomi Akogwu, talks about her research into agricultural history and how our modern methods came out of the agricultural revolution of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. She details mechanization and methodological improvements happening at the time, as well as the growth of agricultural colleges and dissemination of knowledge available. She also covers the challenges facing modern agriculture and how the rise of homesteading is giving some hope for the future.
