Title: Other Arab agronomists
Post by: Sijilmassa on February 18, 2011, 05:21:56 PM
Does anyone have any information on any of the following four Arab agricultural authors?

Ibn al-Husayn. Abu ‘Abdullah, Muḥammad b. al-Husayn. died 6th C. hijri / after 1301. Al-Mukhtār min mustaḥsan al-asfār.

Al-Ahdal. Ḥuṣayn bin Abī Qāsim bin Abī Bakr al-Ahdal. d. after 1084 AH. Kashf al-qinā‘  ‘an ma’rifat aḥkām al-zarrā‘, ‘Lifting of the veil of understanding of the rules of the farmer’.

At-Tujībī. Abu ‘Uthmān bin abī Ja’far at-Tujībī. 1177 hijri / 1763. Urjūza f’il filāḥa, ‘Poem on Husbandry’.

Al-Ḥasanī. Ali b. Ḥasan b. Muḥammad Ibn Khaz‘al al-Ḥasanī. Mukhtaṣar iẓhār al-malāḥa fī’l falāḥa. Possibly the same as ‘Alī bin Hasan bin Muḥammad al-Husaynī, author of Mukhtaṣar kitāb al-filāḥat li-ibn Waḥshiyya, ‘Summary of “Nabataean Agriculture”’.

Thanks.
