In 1709 he moved to a See also:farm near See also:Hungerford and from 1711 to 1714 travelled in See also:France and See also:Italy, making careful observations of the methods of See also:agriculture in those countries which aided and confirmed his theories as to the true use of manure and the importance of " pulverizing " the See also:soil.
