Notes on agriculture in Cyprus and its products
by William Bevan (b. 1864)
"Notes on Agriculture in Cyprus and its Products" by William Bevan is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a comprehensive examination of agricultural practices, conditions, and produce in Cyprus, detailing historical data and developments within the context of local farming. The book addresses various aspects of agriculture on the island, including climate, soil types, crops, livestock, and agricultural methods. The opening of the publication introduces the author’s objective to consolidate and disseminate information relevant to Cyprus's agriculture, which had previously been scattered across various reports and documents. It references the foundational work of the late Mr. Panayiotis Gennadius, outlining significant improvements in farming practices and attitudes among local farmers over the years. Bevan acknowledges contributions from various individuals and proposes that the notes will summarize agricultural practices and resources on the island for better accessibility and understanding.
