Description
Roman Farm Management: The Treatises of Cato and Varro is a book that provides a comprehensive guide to farming practices in ancient Rome. The book is a collection of two treatises written by Cato and Varro, two prominent figures in ancient Roman agriculture. The first treatise, written by Cato, is titled De Agricultura and provides a detailed account of the various aspects of farming, including crop cultivation, livestock management, and the use of tools and equipment. The second treatise, written by Varro, is titled Res Rusticae and covers similar topics, but with a greater focus on the practical aspects of farming. Both treatises offer valuable insights into the techniques and methods used by Roman farmers, as well as the social and economic context in which they operated. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of agriculture, ancient Rome, or the development of farming practices more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
