Philadelphia, 1832. Envelope or Cover. Very good. This one-page printed circular ,dated "Philadelphia, May 30th, 1832 was folded and sent by mail to the "Hon. P. Ellis" (Senator Powhattan Ellis of Mississippi) at "Washington City, D.C." I bears a small, circular "PHIL 6 JUN" postmark in red and a black "FREE" handstamp, which was appropriate at the time as the circular was being sent to a member of Congress. This lengthy circular, created and distributed by the hatters of Philadelphia, lays out a detailed case for the passing of the Protectionist Tariff of 1832 from the perspective of northern hat manufacturees. It begins with a short discussion of the beginning of the hat industry in colonial America when "the material of which hats were then made was in abundance, almost at our doors, and purchased at very low prices." That changed, the hatters point out when English hat manufacturers that partnered with "Fur Companies on this continent were enabled to procure the beaver and muskrat (two of the most valuable furs of this country) cheaper than the American Hatters." This they noted led to a decrease in their ability to continue to produce first-rate hats, as they were forced to use lesser quality coney (rabbit) fur, unless they purchase American beaver or muskrat fur from English merchants. Additionally, English hat makers began to drop the prices of completed hats that they exported to the United States forcing American manufactures to sell at the "lowest possible price" and driving worker salaries down "to a level with the paupers of Europe, with all the train of moral degradation consequent to such a state." Not only, they claimed, did this this affect the 37,500 male hatters and apprentices, it also hurt the 7,000 female hat trimmers. The Tariff of 1832 was passed to reduce the clamor an even more draconian tariff created in 1828-known in the South as the Tariff of Abominations-on a sectional vote in Congress when Northern politicians protected their growing industries without concern for drastically driving up the cost for manufactured goods imported from England. Worse, the tariff crippled demand for Southern agricultural products by imposing a 45% tax on raw goods like cotton and tobacco. This tariff-which was not supported by Senator Ellis-passed but did far to little to lessen the extraordinary financial burden placed on the South and led directly to the Nullification Crisis and the chain of events that set the stage for secession and the Civil War. No doubt these circulars were sent to each of the 46 Senators and 240 Representatives of the Twenty-Third Congress, however it is very scarce. No others are for sale in the trade.

Agricultural economics is a branch of applied economics that takes the tools of both micro and macroeconomics and uses them to solve problems in a specific area. With food inflation soaring and agricultural disputes at the heart of the collapse of the latest round of world trade talks, the subject has seldom been so topical. It focused on maximizing the crop yield while maintaining a good soil ecosystem. Throughout the 20th century the discipline expanded and the current scope of the discipline is much broader. Agricultural economics today includes a variety of applied areas, having considerable overlap with conventional economics. Agricultural economics does not study only the behavior of a farmer at the farm level. That is, in a way, the micro analysis. Agricultural problems have a macro aspect as well. Instability of agriculture and agricultural unemployment are the problems which have to be dealt with, mainly at the macro level. At the micro level, we need to understand the relevant production functions and the relationship between labor and capital. At the macro level, the subject studies the way governments decide how to support farmers. In developed economies, policy has tended to be devised so as to support and protect farmers – subsidies for prices and agricultural import tariffs under the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy for example – often with significant effects on trade flows and trading relations. In contrast, developing nations seek ways to ensure adequacy of supply of food for their people and to gain access to world markets to earn export revenue. Agricultural economics plays a role in the economics of development, for a continuous level of farm surplus is one of the wellsprings of technological and commercial growth. This book ‘Agriculture Economics’ presents coverage on agricultural finance, policy, marketing, farm and agribusiness management, rural sociology, and agricultural law. Research into farm and agribusiness management led to mathematical planning systems and statistical computation of farm-enterprise data, and interest has been drawn to decision-making behaviour studies of farm managers. It deals with the study of the production and consumption of food in both developed and developing countries along with analysis of the policies that shape the world’s largest industry.

Horticultural crops such as fruits and vegetables are very important in human nutrition because when consumed in adequate amounts, they are an important source of vitamins, mineral nutrients and fiber. Processing of fruits and vegetables is very important to preserve quality. The magnitude of postharvest losses of fresh fruits and vegetables is estimated to be 5 to 25% in developed countries and 20 to 50% in developing countries depending upon commodity. In spite of having varied agro-climatic conditions, abundance of natural resources like sunlight and water, sufficient labor availability and abundant produce, our country is trailing behind in productivity, export and processing of horticultural produce as compared with other horticultural advanced countries. Further, due to lack of adequate post-harvest handling, processing and infrastructure facilities, post-harvest losses caused by spoilage are very high. It is estimated that post-harvest losses of horticultural produce range between 8-37 per cent. Generally losses occur during pre-harvesting, harvesting, transportation, storage, and processing, packing, marketing and distribution stages. When conditions are not suitable for storage or immediate marketing of fresh produce, many horticultural crops can be processed using simple technologies. There are some processing methods that can be used by small-scale handlers, including drying, fermenting, canning, freezing, preserving and juicing. Fruits, vegetables and flowers can all be dried and stored for use or sale in the future. Fruits and vegetables can be canned or frozen, and fruits are often preserved in sugar or juiced. The main objective of fruit and vegetable processing is to supply wholesome, safe, nutritious and acceptable food to consumers at affordable prices throughout the year. Successful fruit and vegetable processing enterprises require a lot of skill and provision of a consistently high quality product. Processors must therefore employ quality control measures to ensure uniformity and consistency in their products. The book covers the processing of a wide range of fruit, vegetable and root produce. These foods are the cornerstone of good health and contain many different vitamins and minerals. This book presents several pre- and postharvest strategies that have been developed to modify these physiological activities, resulting in increased shelf life. This will be of invaluable for students, professional horticulturalists and readers with interest in the subject.

Sheffield's Observations> (also 1791) had suggested that low prices of grain were not an advantage. The government, he thought, should stimulate production and the export of grain through corn laws, bounties, duties, and prohibition of imports until a very high price had been reached. The resulting prosperity would benefit everyone. Corrie took a diametrically opposite view. Sheffield's suggested measures would so injure English trade in carrying corn that English agriculture itself would suffer., London: John Stockdale, 1791, 0, LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing, 2013. New. Agriculture represents 31% of the Rwandan GDP with 87% of the labor force in this sector. Main agriculture products are Coffee, Tea, Pyrethrum, Bananas, Beans, Sorghum, Potatoes and Livestock. Coffee is a major source of rural incomes; it has a strong impact on reducing poverty. Currently, the Rwandan coffee can be estimated at 33,000 ha (82 million plants) grown by 500,000 growers with an average yield of 0.7 tons of green coffee/ha. Our research has focused mainly on the impact of the introduction of specialty coffee on the price chance in the Coffee sector in general and at the Coffee farmers’ level in particular. This research shows that the specialty coffee participate in the increase of the farmer income specifically, as actually the price of specialty coffee is now almost double to what it was in 2002, the year in which it was introduced in Rwanda; but also generally it contribute to the increase of the GDP trough the share of Agriculture exports in Rwandan Economy., LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing, 2013, 6<
