The potato crop in Ireland was hit by a fungus in 1845, causing one third of the crop to be lost by October and leading to 87,000 deaths from hunger. By 1847, over 5 million pounds had been spent on relief schemes to aid the over 3 million people dependent on assistance. Soup kitchens were set up to feed the starving population, but the 1847 potato crop was small as many people were too weak to plant or had eaten seed potatoes. During the famine years from 1845-1847, around 2 million Irish emigrated due to the disastrous conditions, with many dying from disease on overcrowded "coffin ships" during the long voyages to North America. The population of Ireland dropped

The document summarizes the history and global spread of the Aberdeen-Angus cattle breed. It describes how the breed was developed in northeast Scotland in the early 19th century from local cattle breeds. It then discusses three pioneering Scottish farmers, Hugh Watson, William McCombie, and Sir George Macpherson-Grant, who were instrumental in establishing and refining the breed between 1808 and 1907 through selective breeding and herdbook recording. The document concludes by outlining how the breed was exported globally starting in the late 19th century, with the founding of breed societies in countries such as New Zealand, Australia, Argentina, and the United States.
An Gorta Mor
The document summarizes the Great Irish Potato Famine from 1845 to 1849. It describes Ireland in 1844, before the famine began, when farming and the economy were stable. In 1845, a potato blight infected the potato crop, which was the primary cash crop and food for many Irish people. The famine lasted four years and caused many Irish immigrants to travel to America, where anti-Irish sentiment was common. It is estimated that the famine took the lives of many Irish people before officially ending in 1849.
The history-of-peanut-butter-and-jelly
The history of peanut butter and jelly began thousands of years ago. Peanuts were discovered by the Incas in 1500 BC and used as food for the afterlife. In 1890, peanut butter was invented by a physician to help patients with digestion. The peanut butter and jelly sandwich became popular in the 1940s as they were included in military rations during World War 2. Jif peanut butter was introduced in 1958 and the world's largest peanut butter and jelly sandwich measured almost 40 feet long and weighed 200 pounds when it was introduced in 1993.

The Canary Island oystercatch was a carnivorous bird that ate small crabs and fish. It went extinct due to overexploitation of invertebrates in its habitat and discomfort from human presence. The plotun was an artiodactyl mammal from the deer family that ate grass and plants. It also went extinct after being overhunted for its delicious meat, which provided hunters with money.
Cattle cowboys and railroads
The document discusses the history of cattle ranching in Texas from the Spanish colonial period to the later 19th century. It describes how Spanish settlers first introduced cattle and ranching to Texas in the 1500s and 1700s. As the cattle industry grew, longhorn cattle thrived on the open range, and after the Civil War, cowboys drove herds north to railroads for shipping to markets in the East. The cattle boom ended in the 1880s as fencing and farming expanded across Texas.
TX History Ch 21.3
The document discusses the history of ranching in South Texas and the Panhandle region. It describes important ranches like the King Ranch, located in Kennedy County, which at its largest encompassed over 1 million acres. It also discusses pioneers of ranching in the Panhandle such as John Adair and Charles Goodnight who established the huge JA Ranch. The document also notes the role of African American trail drivers like Bose Ikard and how the cowboy lifestyle was popularized through dime novels.
The Open Range
The document discusses the rise and fall of the cattle industry on the American open range in the late 19th century. It provides background information on the problems that arose for cattle drives with the spread of homesteaders and restrictions imposed by Native American tribes. John Iliff established one of the first ranches in 1866, supplying meat to the army, Native Americans, and railroads. Ranching grew successful as railroads allowed cattle transport, breeding improved, and the elimination of buffalo and diseases made the Plains more suitable for cattle. The open range ended due to falling profits from overgrazing, a severe winter in 1886-87, and the introduction of barbed wire fencing which allowed for land enclosure and private ownership.
New england colonists
The early New England colonists experienced a difficult first winter in 1607-1608, where many resorted to eating their horses, dogs, cats, rats, and some even engaged in cannibalism for survival as most of their livestock had died. By May 1610, only 60 of the original 214 settlers were still alive. Children attended grammar schools and were also taught their family trade. Family life was patriarchal with the father having supreme authority over the household. The economy struggled initially due to some settlers not wanting to work, though they began exporting tobacco to England for income. Colonists worked together to hunt, gather food, plant crops, build houses, and educate their children.

An exciting new time in #hempstory.
If as a country we can incorporate the benefits that we have surrounding us, we are going to see an exciting new age to add to this story.
What sets us apart are things like: The vast amount of space that we have. the country the size of a continent Temperament that range throughout the country so different species are able to be grown in different climates and regions. As history nerds that Google a lot about how ancient civilizations used agriculture, this last one has got to be the best one 易 ☀️History that dates back almost 65000 years, a culture that grew and survived by themselves for tens of thousands of years.
The Hemp Report have a solid belief that there is an array of indigenous knowledge that we don't know yet and honestly we have to take the time to properly interpret that knowledge.
We like to use the comparison with everyone's favourite companion, their dog.
If for example your dog was barking growling and running a muck would you hand it over to a stranger to calm it down? Or would you feel that as the owner you had the best relationship with the Dog?
If there was a vicious dog running about to attack would you trust it's owner to shout the right command or would you just start shouting out random words hoping for the best?
We think the latter, moving forward our belief is that if we incorporate the owners instructions on the land just like you would incorporate a pet owners instructions on their pet.
We can help have a smoother journey.
All whilst transitioning into a more agriculturally developed country, who knows we might even learn something.

The document summarizes key details about the Great Famine that occurred in Ireland in the 1840s. It describes how the fungus Phytophthora infestans arrived from Europe in 1845 and quickly destroyed the potato crop. The potato was a staple in Ireland but was vulnerable to disease. By 1847 over 1 million people had died from starvation or famine-related disease as the blight continued to devastate potato yields for several years. Mass emigration from Ireland ensued as many fled on overcrowded "coffin ships" to escape the famine.
An gorta mór. The Great Famine.
The Great Famine in Ireland began in 1845 and lasted until 1851, resulting in the death of 1 million Irish people from starvation and the emigration of another 1 million. Ireland's population at the time was reliant on the potato for food, and when the potato crop was destroyed by blight, widespread starvation ensued. While food continued to be exported from Ireland, Britain's policy of non-intervention according to laissez-faire economic ideas exacerbated the famine and caused huge tensions. Workhouses set up for the starving provided poor conditions and many died along the "path of the dead" to the workhouses. Overcrowded "coffin ships" transported emigrants away from Ireland at a huge cost of
History Notes on the Famine
The document summarizes the Great Famine that occurred in Ireland from 1845 to 1849. It describes how the famine began when a potato blight destroyed most of Ireland's potato crop, which millions depended on for food. As people began to starve, soup kitchens and workhouses were set up, but many still died of starvation or famine-related diseases. Over a million people emigrated, often on overcrowded "coffin ships" where up to 20% died during the voyage. By 1847, the worst year, over 3 million Irish were being fed in soup kitchens.
The Great Irish Potato Famine
The Great Irish Potato Famine of 1845-1850 was caused by a fungus called Late Blight that destroyed the potato crop, which was a staple food in Ireland. Over 1 million Irish people died of starvation and disease and another 2 million emigrated due to the lack of food. The potato famine was one of the worst disasters to hit Europe in the 19th century and greatly reduced Ireland's population.

Traditional Aboriginal foods included insects like witchetty grubs and honey ants as well as plants and animals hunted and gathered from the bush. After European colonization in 1788, the settlers' diet consisted mainly of native meats baked in pies and damper bread baked in ashes. Immigration in the 1800s from Ireland and post-WWII from Europe and Asia introduced new ingredients and styles of cooking that blended with Australian native foods and bush tucker. Today Australian cuisine is characterized by fusion of global influences alongside uniquely Australian dishes like Vegemite, barbecues, and Tim Tams.

Famine can be caused by war, population imbalance, natural disasters, and extreme climates. The document discusses the Great Irish Potato Famine from 1845 to 1852. The potato crop was destroyed by potato blight fungus, resulting in over one million deaths from starvation and disease and another million Irish refugees fleeing Ireland. When the potato crop failed in 1845, the British Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel recognized the crisis and shipped Indian grain to Ireland at cheap prices to help families, though the poorest could not afford it. When the 1846 crop also failed, the new Prime Minister Lord John Russell reduced food aid and instead tried to employ the Irish, but many were too weak from starvation to work effectively.
Famine and emigration abby 3
The potato famine occurred from 1846 to 1852 when a potato disease called blight arrived in Ireland and Scotland, possibly from ships from America. The blight caused potatoes to rot in the soil, resulting in more than 1 million people starving to death in Ireland and many more becoming sick. Many poor Scots and Irish fled the famine on ships to America and Canada, but these "coffin ships" earned their name because so many passengers died during the journeys, with over 20,000 dying in ships to Canada alone in 1846-1847. The rural poor in Ireland were most heavily impacted as they relied almost entirely on potatoes for their diet.
Corned beef
Corned beef has a long history originating in medieval Europe of preserving beef with salt. It became particularly associated with Ireland, where the beef-curing industry in Cork was a major export business in the 18th-19th centuries. In America, corned beef was popular due to its preservation qualities and was a staple food for colonial and military diets. Though commonly eaten on St. Patrick's Day today, corned beef was not a traditional Irish food but more of a festive dish sometimes enjoyed on holidays. Jewish delis also served corned beef which has origins in Eastern European culinary traditions of preserving meat.

This document provides an overview of peasants and farmers in three different countries - England, the USA, and Bengal. It summarizes the key changes and events that impacted rural populations in each region as modern agriculture and integration into global markets took place. In England, the enclosure movement displaced peasants and led to agricultural improvements but also poverty and unrest. In the USA, westward expansion enabled large-scale wheat farming through new technologies but ultimately resulted in the Dust Bowl. In Bengal, the British East India Company coerced peasants into opium production to finance the tea trade with China against their will.

Australian foods a
Australian food has evolved over time as a reflection of the diverse cultures that have influenced the country. Originally consisting of indigenous "bush tucker" like witchetty grubs and honey ants gathered by Aboriginal people, Australian cuisine incorporated ingredients from British colonists like mutton, bread, and tea. Later waves of immigrants from Ireland, the Mediterranean, Asia, and elsewhere introduced their culinary traditions as well. Now Australian food is a unique blend of global influences and local specialties like Vegemite, barbecues, Tim Tams, lamingtons, and pavlova.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
