There are brief histories of Rothamsted and of the Lawes Agricultural Trust on the Rothamsted website http://www.rothamsted.ac.uk About the catalogue This catalogue is a revised and greatly expanded version of Rothamsted Archives: a catalogue of the records in the Library, Rothamsted Experimental Station, compiled by Margaret Harcourt Williams in 1987. The original investigation and cataloguing of the Rothamsted archives was made possible through a grant from the Leverhulme Trust in 1984; when this grant finished, continuing work on the archives was funded by the Lawes Agricultural Trust. We are grateful to both these organisations for their interest and support. The terms of the 1984 grant restricted work to sorting and cataloguing the papers held in a single storeroom whose contents consisted largely of 19th century material from the work of Lawes and Gilbert, together with early to mid 20th century material from some staff members, especially from the Director EJ Russell. The entire Rothamsted historical archive was potentially much larger and since the publication of the original catalogue in 1987 it has more than doubled, as an extensive rebuilding programme prompted some departments to transfer their older material to the Library. However, other departments have opted to retain their archives so the Library does not currently hold the entire archive of Rothamsted Research and its predecessor bodies. In general, archives in departments have not been catalogued although some lists may be available. Rothamsted Research - Archive Catalogue The catalogue has been organised alphabetically by series, with each series preceded by a brief description of its contents and their provenance. There is no index but the entire catalogue can be searched by using the ‘find’ function in Adobe Acrobat Reader. However, it should be borne in mind that the catalogue contains descriptions of items in the archives, not transcriptions of their content, so names and subjects mentioned in the records themselves may not always be searchable. If a search produces no results, it may be worth browsing through relevant series to try to identify material of possible interest. Scope and content of the archives The earliest archives are from the time of Lawes and Gilbert (1843–1901). They include: archives of experiments begun in the 19th century ie experimental data with related notebooks and letters drafts and proofs for their numerous scientific papers bound volumes of correspondence a few personal papers. papers relating to the Lawes Chemical Manure Company papers relating to the Lawes Testimonial Laboratory. Although scientific experiments began at Rothamsted in the early 1840s the organisation was not given a formal structure until 1889 when the owner and founder, Sir John Lawes, established the Lawes Agricultural Trust. Before this, there are no formal administrative archives and, even though after 1889 the Lawes Agricultural Trustees supervised the work here, it was largely directed by Sir John and his scientific partner Sir Henry Gilbert until they died in the early 20th century. Therefore there are no visitors’ books, records of appointments or similar records and most of the 19th and early 20th century archives here are scientific data and drafts of material for publications. Other experimental work is illustrated by extensive archives from departments. These have been arranged by the first title of the department that produced them although, after closures and mergers, the current title may differ. Botany, Chemistry, Farm, Field Experiments, Meteorology and Woburn all produced extensive archives while smaller collections have been received from the Library, the Manor, Microbiology, Saxmundham and Tunstall, Statistics and Soils. Administrative records include: a long series of archives of the Lawes Agricultural Trust a large collection, including numerous photographs, from EJ Russell, Director 1912 – 43 small collections from other 20th century Directors archives of the Staff Union (a social club) and of the Friends of Rothamsted and related bodies small collections relating to awards, exhibitions, the Rothamsted site and the Society for Extending the Rothamsted Experiments. There are personal papers from the 19th century scientists Robert Warington senior and junior and also a series of miscellaneous personal papers, some of which are Rothamsted Research - Archive Catalogue from former staff members and others from people with more distant connection to Rothamsted. Rothamsted Library does not normally collect archives but the archives do include some largely 20th century estate records, a gift from the Lawes family’s land agents, and a small number of manuscripts relating to agriculture. This is what remains of a collection made by EJ Russell, which has been dispersed. Archives held by the Library are mostly boxed and stored on approximately 200 one metre shelves. They are mainly paper, including plans and newspaper cuttings, but they also include different types of photographs. At present, in 2010, there is very little in other media. Consulting the Rothamsted Library Archives Rothamsted is a working Research Institute, and as such is not generally open to the public, although we always welcome bona fide researchers who wish to use our collections. However, the Library has a very small staff, so if you wish to look at any of the items listed in the catalogue, please make an appointment by emailing the Library at [email protected] or writing to the Librarian. To help you make the most of your visit, please give us as much information as you can and please do some preparatory work before approaching us. The Rothamsted website includes information on the origin of Rothamsted, the Lawes Agricultural Trust and the Classical and Long-term experiments and you can find other information from the bibliography below and the extensive list of frequently asked questions: http://www.rothamsted.ac.uk/library-and-information-services/archive-faqs Please note that all the archives kept in the Library are included in this catalogue, although the amount of detail given varies. The individual series do not follow a standard arrangement, due to the diversity of the material and length of time over which it has been acquired. Some series are arranged chronologically while others are sub-divided according to related materials or function. However, if something you hope to find is not listed, it is more likely to be because it is not held by the Library than because it has not been catalogued. Please look below for details of related material at Rothamsted and related material elsewhere. The reference codes given in the catalogue are also used for locating the documents and you should quote these if you are ordering documents prior to a visit. Most of the codes used in the 1987 catalogue have been altered. Although this catalogue was never widely available, some of its references have been used in published articles; if you come across these, please remember that they will have changed. If what you want to see is not easily identified in the current catalogue, please give us as many details as you can. Rothamsted Research - Archive Catalogue Related material at Rothamsted All departments hold their own current and semi current records. Biomathematics and Bioinformatics hold the archives of the former Statistics Department. VCU, formerly Photography, has an extensive collection of photographs, some dating from the 19th century, mainly taken during the course of work at Rothamsted. Related material in Rothamsted Library Printed papers by Lawes, Gilbert and other scientists, details on Rothamsted Library catalogue. A large collection of bound miscellaneous pamphlets, many of which are offprints or photocopies. Partly catalogued, details on Rothamsted Library catalogue. Rothamsted annual reports, 1908 - 2009. Related material elsewhere Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies, http://www.hertsdirect.org/libsleisure/heritage1/hals have Rothamsted estate records from the 1200s to the 1700s, and also family records, mainly from the 17th and 18th centuries. The relevant catalogues are D/Elw and D/Z55. Bristol University, http://www.bristol.ac.uk/is/library/collections/specialcollections/ has the records of Long Ashton Research Station, which was once administered by Rothamsted. Barking and Dagenham Archive and Local Studies Centre http://archiveshub.ac.uk/data/gb350-bd24 has records of Lawes Chemical Company Ltd. 1872-1970. Gaps in the archives There are only a few personal papers of either Lawes or Gilbert. The Lawes family may have taken their archives with them when they finally left

    The Historical Development and Significance of the Haber Bosch Process By David E. Kissel A review of key scientific discoveries in the mid 1800s on the role of N in crop production, and the later research in the early 20th century of scientists Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch that made N fertilizer production possible. Dr. Kissel draws from several sources for this historical assessment that links N supply with social change and security—especially from the book by Vaclav Smil entitled “Enriching the Earth” as well as “The Alchemy of Air” by Thomas Hager. oday we in agriculture take for granted the importance of the production and ready availability of N fertilizer. But Taround 175 years ago, a group of scientists in Europe were involved in a scientifi c debate over how important am- monium and nitrate forms of N were for the growth of plants, and whether N fertilizers were needed at all. By 1836, the French chemist Jean-Baptiste Boussingault had summarized fi eld experiments on manuring, crop rotation, and sources of N. He concluded that N was a major component of plants. An important question in 1840 was whether plants could get all of the N they needed from the soil and from the air. The great German chemist Justus von Liebig had concluded that soil and atmospheric ammonia supplied enough N for the needs of crops, but this conclusion was wrong. Scientists at the time who found the right answer to these questions were John Bennet Lawes and Joseph Henry Gilbert, who showed clearly at Rothamsted, England that addition of N fertilizers greatly nations were going to feed themselves in the coming 20th increased yields of wheat.

  • Profits and Potatoes
    Rothamsted Research and the Value of Excellence: A synthesis of the available evidence Report to Rothamsted Research By Sean Rickard October 2015 Séan Rickard Ltd. 2015 1 Forward by the Director and Chief Executive of Rothamsted Research Professor Achim Dobermann Assessing the impact of agricultural research is difficult because science is a complex and lengthy process, with pathways to impact that vary widely. It is common that research and development stages towards new technologies and know-how last 15 or even more years, followed by many more years for reaching peak adoption by farmers and other users of new technology. Adoption is often slow and diffuse, also because unlike in manufacturing many agricultural innovations need to be tailored to specific biophysical and even socioeconomic environments. Some of the many impact pathways may be known well, whereas others are not or are very difficult to quantify. Attribution presents another problem, i.e., it is often very difficult to quantify how much of the observed technological progress or other impact can be attributed to a specific innovation or an institution. Progress in productivity and efficiency is the result of many factors, including technology, knowledge and policy. Even more difficult is to assess the impact of agricultural technology on a wider range of ecosystem services and consumer benefits. Nevertheless, in science we need to be willing to rigorously assess the relevance of our research. In his report, Sean Rickard has attempted to quantify the cumulative impact Rothamsted Research has had through key impact pathways that are most directly linked to its research. The economic approach used is in my view sound, providing a robust framework and a first overall estimate of the wider impact.

  • Chemical Innovation in Plant Nutrition in a Historical Continuum from Ancient Greece and Rome Until Modern Times
    DOI: 10.1515/cdem-2016-0002 CHEM DIDACT ECOL METROL. 2016;21(1-2):29-43 Jacek ANTONKIEWICZ 1* and Jan ŁAB ĘTOWICZ 2 CHEMICAL INNOVATION IN PLANT NUTRITION IN A HISTORICAL CONTINUUM FROM ANCIENT GREECE AND ROME UNTIL MODERN TIMES INNOWACJE CHEMICZNE W OD ŻYWIANIU RO ŚLIN OD STARO ŻYTNEJ GRECJI I RZYMU PO CZASY NAJNOWSZE Abstract: This monograph aims to present how arduously views on plant nutrition shaped over centuries and how the foundation of environmental knowledge concerning these issues was created. This publication also presents current problems and trends in studies concerning plant nutrition, showing their new dimension. This new dimension is determined, on one hand, by the need to feed the world population increasing in geometric progression, and on the other hand by growing environmental problems connected with intensification of agricultural production. Keywords: chemical innovations, plant nutrition Introduction Plant nutrition has been of great interest since time immemorial, at first among philosophers, and later among researchers. The history of environmental discoveries concerning the way plants feed is full of misconceptions and incorrect theories. Learning about the multi-generational effort to find an explanation for this process that is fundamental for agriculture shows us the tenacity and ingenuity of many outstanding personalities and scientists of that time. It also allows for general reflection which shows that present-day knowledge (which often seems obvious and simple) is the fruit of a great collective effort of science. Antiquity Already in ancient Greece people were interested in life processes of plants, the way they feed, and in the conditions that facilitate or inhibit their growth.
