Abstract

THIS is a comprehensive volume of information 4 contributed by the staff of the Department of Agriculture in Uganda on agricultural conditions-including native agriculture, land tenure, soils, manures-imported, artificial, green and cover crops; climate, crops and allied subjects. The important associative sciences of mycology and entomology are also dealt with very thoroughly, the fungus and insect pests being discussed at length under each crop, though bees and locusts are treated in a separate section.
