"The Resistant Vine Question for California, and the California Vine or Anaheim Disease" (1906) delves into the challenges faced by California’s burgeoning wine industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. John Herman Henry Hoops examines the devastating impact of the Anaheim disease, a blight that threatened to wipe out the region’s vineyards. This work explores potential solutions, focusing on the use of resistant vine varieties to combat the disease.
Hoops’ study offers insights into the scientific understanding of plant diseases and the efforts to develop sustainable agricultural practices. It is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of viticulture, plant pathology, and the development of California’s agricultural landscape. It remains relevant for its detailed account of a crucial period in the state’s agricultural history.
