The importance of this achieve- ment is emphasized by Dr. 0. Mc- Ccnkey, who during two years leave, from the Guelph Agricultural Col- lege, Ontario, has studied the sub- ject of grass cultivation at Cam- bridge, Aberystwyth, Aberdeen and various grassland centres in this country; and in Continental count- ries. ln his monograph on his investi- gations entitled “Recent advances in pasture management," Dr. Mc- Conkey points out that. since grass ls the raw material oi milk, butter. cheese. meat, mutton, wool and hid- es, pasture is the Emplre‘s most important crop. The products of grass form 94_per cent. of the total exports from New Zealand, 60 per cent. from Australia and over half from the Irish Free State. About '10 per cent, of the total area of the British Isles consists of grasiand, and it is estimated that the British grass crop+that is the home production of grassland products-is worth $625,000,000 a year. The total annual consumption or grssslandprodcts in the United K ngdom reaches the enormous sum of $137,000,000, or nearly $50 per capita, while that of wheat is only $500,000,000. “The limiting factor for the pro- duction of these products is not the- number of cattle and sheep, which can be increased indefinitely but the raw material which they transform," states Dr. Mcconkey.
