Description

This scholarly work from the Needham Research Institute Series examines the agricultural history of premodern Japan with a focus that extends beyond rice cultivation alone. While rice served as the principal source of revenue and shaped the public economy of the Japanese State, this volume adopts a broader perspective on the subsistence economy across the plant kingdom. Rather than limiting its scope to rice growing for tax purposes, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of agricultural practices, economic structures, and food production systems that sustained Japanese society before the modern era. By integrating plant science, economic history, and social administration, this work offers readers a nuanced understanding of how agriculture functioned in premodern Japan and its role in supporting both state revenue and everyday sustenance.
