| Abstract | The agricultural history of the state of Pennsylvania provides one of the finest examples of the significance of cultural considerations in farming enterprises. No other colony received so large a representation of different European ethnic groups as Pennsylvania. No other colony witnessed such unlike attacks upon the frontier or such unlike techniques of farming and making a living. The German immigrants brought to this country different agricultural attitudes and techniques. The Old World cultural patterns in their early agricultural practices represented deeply seated folkways. These folkways were modified in the New World but were not completely obliterated. |
