Summary "Ducks and Geese" by Harry M. Lamon and Rob R. Slocum is a comprehensive agricultural guide written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the practical aspects of raising ducks and geese, touching on various methods for both commercial and farm-based poultry keeping. It aims to provide the reader with essential information and techniques regarding the care, breeding, and management of these birds to maximize productivity and profitability. The opening of the book introduces the unique significance of duck raising within the poultry industry, highlighting its economic potential and detailing various methods employed by successful growers, particularly on Long Island. The authors emphasize the demand for clear, practical guidance owing to the lack of comprehensive resources on this subject. They also outline the structure of the book, indicating a thorough exploration of topics like breeding practices, management, and the commercial aspects of raising ducks and geese, while stressing the importance of good illustrations to enhance understanding. This overview sets the stage for detailed guidance aimed at both beginners and experienced poultry farmers looking to improve their practices. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
