Beauty or statistics: practice and science in Dutch livestock breeding, 1900-2000

| Zusammenfassung: | In the 1970s, scientists claimed that farm animal breeding was finally evolving from an art into a science. In their view, the switch to scientific breeding was as inevitable as the ongoing process of agricultural modernization. However, the art-to-science scenario is too simplistic to do justice to the complex dynamic that characterized the transformation of the field. The livestock breeds that take centre stage in this book – dairy cattle, chickens, pigs, sheep, and horses – were products of the twentieth century. The methods used by breeders to improve their animals, however, were much older. Tracing the history of practical stockbreeding, the role of Mendelism in scientific breeding, and the emergence of quantitative genetics, Beauty or Statistics shows that the story of the scientific modernization of livestock breeding can be more fruitfully analyzed from the perspective of changing cultures of breeding, taking practical, commercial, normative, and aesthetic considerations into account |

In their view, the switch to scientific breeding was as inevitable as the ongoing process of agricultural modernization. However, the art-to-science scenario is too simplistic to do justice to the complex dynamic that characterized the transformation of the field. The livestock breeds that take centre stage in this book – dairy cattle, chickens, pigs, sheep, and horses – were products of the twentieth century. The methods used by breeders to improve their animals, however, were much older. Tracing the history of practical stockbreeding, the role of Mendelism in scientific breeding, and the emergence of quantitative genetics, Beauty or Statistics shows that the story of the scientific modernization of livestock breeding can be more fruitfully analyzed from the perspective of changing cultures of breeding, taking practical, commercial, normative, and aesthetic considerations into account Geschichte 1900-2000 gnd rswk-swf Dutch agriculture Dutch farm animals History of animal husbandry History of livestock breeding Mendel Mendelism Texel chickens cows genetics modernization of agriculture pigs quantitative genetics SOCIAL SCIENCE / Agriculture & Food (see also POLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / Agriculture & Food Policy) bisacsh Livestock Breeding Netherlands History 20th century Livestock Netherlands History 20th century Nutztierhaltung (DE-588)4286868-3 gnd rswk-swf Nutztierzucht (DE-588)4474521-7 gnd rswk-swf Niederlande (DE-588)4042203-3 gnd rswk-swf Niederlande (DE-588)4042203-3 g Nutztierzucht (DE-588)4474521-7 s Nutztierhaltung (DE-588)4286868-3 s Geschichte 1900-2000 z DE-604 Laan, Steven van der (DE-588)1219973084 ctb Oldenburger, Jesper ctb Waaij, Liesbeth van der (DE-588)1219973572 ctb Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-1-4875-0700-8 https://doi.org/10.3138/9781487535384 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
