In 1909, American agronomist F.H. King toured China, Korea and
Japan, studying traditional fertilization, tillage and general
farming practices. He wrote his observations and findings in
Farmers of Forty Centuries, Or Permanent Agriculture in China,
Korea, and Japan (1911, published shortly after his death by his
wife, Carrie Baker King). King lived in an era preceding synthetic
nitrogen fertilizer production and before the use of the internal
combustion engine for farm machinery, yet he was profoundly
interested in the challenge of farming the same soils in a
'permanent' manner, hence his interest in the agricultural
practices of ancient cultures.
