| Summary | "Natural and Artificial Duck Culture" by James Rankin is a comprehensive guide on poultry farming, specifically focused on duck breeding and care, written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a detailed resource for both amateur and professional poultry enthusiasts, particularly those interested in the Pekin duck, covering aspects from breeding techniques to marketing strategies. It reflects Rankin's extensive experience in the business and aims to educate readers about successful duck culture in a rapidly growing industry. The opening of the book introduces Rankin's motivations for writing, which stemmed from the need to address frequent inquiries he received about duck cultivation. He highlights the significance of duck farming within the broader poultry industry and discusses the shift in public perception regarding ducks as a viable food source. Rankin emphasizes the benefits of artificial incubation over traditional methods, sharing insights from his long-standing success in the field. He asserts that with the right care and systems in place, it is possible to produce healthy, high-quality ducks efficiently and profitably, addressing both potential pitfalls and the importance of rigorous management practices. Through careful selection of breeding stock and a focus on practical feeding and housing methods, Rankin sets the stage for a deeper exploration into successful duck culture.
