Overview

Excerpt from The Agricultural and Forest Products of British West Africa Since the first edition of this book appeared, British West Africa has experienced a serious set-back in its development through the occurrence of the Great European War. From that war, however, many lessons will have been learnt, which will, it is hoped, make the course of progress in the future more sure and perhaps more rapid. The cultivation of cotton has now been shown to be successful and profitable in Nigeria. In the Northern Provinces great progress has been made in perfecting a cotton originally grown from American Upland seed, whilst the Southern Provinces have produced in creasing quantities of an improved native cotton of the type of Middling American. The future of cotton production in Nigeria is now assured, and its further development chiefly depends on effective action being taken on commercial lines.
