This volume contains two foundational works on agriculture from ancient Rome: Marcus Porcius Cato’s 'De Agri Cultura' and Marcus Terentius Varro’s 'Rerum Rusticarum.' Cato’s treatise offers practical advice on managing a Roman farm, covering topics such as crop cultivation, animal husbandry, and household management. Varro’s work delves deeper into the theoretical aspects of agriculture, discussing the ideal farm layout, the selection of livestock, and the importance of understanding soil types and climates.Presented here in Latin, this edition includes scholarly commentary by H. Keil, enhancing its value for students and researchers of Roman history, agriculture, and the Latin language. These texts provide invaluable insights into the economic and social life of ancient Rome and remain essential reading for anyone interested in the history of agriculture.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
