S2 E2 Agriculture Kicks off the Industrial Revolution


Listen Later

From Jethro Tull (the inventor who kicked off the Industrial Revolution) to Jethro Tull (the Rock Band) this podcast looks at agricultural contributions to the Industrial Revolution during the eighteenth and Nineteenth Century. I start with Agricultural implements that changed the industry like Tull’s seed drill, Eli Whitney’s Cotton Gin, and Charles Newbold’s plow. I then look at the use of selective breeding and its tie to the inception of the Texas Cattle industry. The podcast winds up talking about the food canning industry.
