Content:
In the summer of 1914, the Russian agricultural scientist and soil scientist Konstantin Glinka sent a manuscript to Berlin. It contained the first presentation of Russian Soil Science, an early ecology doctrine of the soil, based on black soil research, to a foreign readership. This was the beginning of a success story: the Russian soil science was successful in the interwar period in Europe and the United States. After 1945, she became a classic of modern agricultural and environmental sciences. Jan Arend tells the story of knowledge transfer from east to west. It follows scientists, manuscripts and terms - from the black earth provinces of the Russian Empire to the podiums of international conferences to the cabinets of American agricultural planners and land estimators in Nazi Germany.
