Abstract/Contents: | Announces the 50th anniversary of the Crop Science Society of America (CSSA). Details the history of the CSSA, starting with the "Society for the Promotion of Agricultural Science (SPAS)...a model from which many scholarly agricultural societies were formed." States that "the SPAS membership list of 1890 was dominated by four scientific specialties: analytical chemistry, botany, entomology, and horticulture. Agronomy and crop science had not yet appeared as titles for the agricultural scholars and researchers in the USA [United States of America]." Briefly profiles Professior William J. Beal, "a key founder and the first president of SPAS." |
