]]> The Royal Botanic Gardens Digital Library is an online resource providing free and open access to more than 7,500 publications from the early modern period to the present day. It contains an excellent digital collection based mainly on materials in the form of books, magazines, pamphlets and leaflets which have been previously digitised and which are mostly from the collection of the Library of the Royal Botanic Gardens. In this case, the Semanario de Agricultura y Artes addressed to the parish priests, created in 1797, aimed to inform in an updated way and through a newspaper-like format, of the advances and new techniques in the arts of Agriculture and Industry, both in Spain and internationally. Its target audience tended to be the peasantry and artisans.

]]> The repopulation that took place after the expulsion of the Moors posed many problems that were difficult to solve. The situation of this marginalised population before the expulsion was that of an overpopulation on which enormous taxes were levied. In such a way that, in order to pay them, they were forced to do strenuous work that still did not allow them to improve their standard of living, entering into a dynamic of proletarianisation as Fernand Braudel put it. The saying attributed to this population that said they lived as Christians, but paid as Moors, was therefore true. The truth is that, in order to survive, the Moors had to cultivate different types of cereals and rice was one of them. Their expulsion was not met with the same volume of population. But to this we had to add that with the Moors had disappeared the great experience in different types of cultivation that the repopulators did not know. Crops such as rice, apart from having a bad reputation due to the diseases it caused (malaria), demanded an effort that the repopulators were not prepared to make.
