| − | |History=In 1840 Justus von Liebig, professor of Chemistry at Giessen University published in Germany his pioneering book Organic Chemistry in its application to Agriculture and Physiology, which appeared simultaneously in English translation on 1 September. This book, which recommended the use of superphosphate - an artificial fertilisers, profoundly changed British agriculture, heralding practices of arable cultivation and animal husbandry termed `high farming'. Thomas Thomson, professor of Chemistry at Glasgow University, was a fervent advocate of Leibig's ideas and the first superphosphate to be produced in Britain was manufactured at Greenock in 1841 by John Poynter. As a result, a number of Thomson's pupils became pioneers of agricultural and veterinary science in the United Kingdom.
