This comprehensive exploration delves into the intricate relationship between agricultural science and its development within the Netherlands and its colonial territories from 1863 to 1986. Maat intricately documents the evolution of institutional practices, demonstrating how scientific advancements in agriculture were shaped by cultural, political, and economic contexts over more than a century. The book offers a deep dive into the methodologies employed by Dutch agricultural scientists and their impact on both local and colonial agricultural practices.

By examining the interplay between scientific innovation and agrarian policies, it highlights the significant role the Netherlands played on the global agricultural stage. Through rich historical analysis and critical insights, the work encourages readers to reflect on the legacy of agricultural science and its implications for future practices and ethical considerations in both local and global contexts.
