"Die Nutzpflanzen unserer Kolonien" by D. Westermann is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book aims to increase understanding and interest among the public, particularly youth, about the economic significance of colonial plants and the potential for agricultural development in German colonies. It focuses on essential plant species relevant for export and local consumption, detailing their cultivation and economic impacts. The opening of the book introduces the author's intent to raise awareness about the economic value of colonial possessions, emphasizing the agricultural potential. Westermann discusses the importance of fostering interest in the cultivation of useful plants that can benefit both the colonies and the German economy. He outlines the structure of the book, which includes sections on various categories of useful plants such as grains, tubers, and fruits, and introduces the methodology of discussing their growth, cultivation requirements, and processing. The introduction sets the stage for a detailed examination of different plants and their contributions to both local diets and export markets, highlighting the intertwining of indigenous agricultural practices and colonial economic interests.
