California is the United States' leading agricultural income producing state, and has been for a long time. Incredibly, there is no major comprehensive history of agriculture in California. Until one comes along the best starting place is Jelinek's Harvest Empire, which introduces the major topics and themes of agriculture in California and then supplements them with an excellent and partially annotated bibliography. The book is brief, but covers Indian, Spanish and Mexican agriculture (one chapter each) and the development of Anglo-American agriculture, especially wheat, specialty crops, industrialization of agriculture and the commercialization of farming. The author stresses the role of irrigation, available labor, crop experimentation and unique responses to transportation and marketing problems. used books,books Books, Heinle & Heinle Pub<
