Abstract
DURING the past century of British rule, many attempts have been made to improve Indian agriculture; but wave after wave of effort has broken, with little result, on the firm foundations of the indigenous practice of the country. Until within quite recent years, only in the fundamental matters of irrigation and reduction of famine has any notable advance been made. It is well, then,to look back and try to form a picture of the nature and origin of this indigenous agricultural practice.
