摘要

对1799年至1800年期间拿破仑的学者对埃及农业进行的详细调查结果进行了分析,以提供尼罗河洪水得到控制之前埃及农业生态系统的人力和动物劳动投入和作物产量的估计。发现估计数在内部是一致的。就单位土地面积的人类粮食产量而言,该系统是杰出的,超过了当时的西欧。每单位人类劳动投入的粮食产量很高,而且大量的牲畜被证明是维持该系统肥力的重要因素。研究人员利用每公顷4.5人的人口承载力估计值来计算埃及的人口,并将这些估计值与历史人口统计学研究的估计值进行比较。

The Egyptian agro-ecosystem at the end of the eighteenth century — An analysis based on the ‘description de l'Egypte’

The results of the detailed survey of Egyptian agriculture made by Napoleon's savants during 1799 and 1800 are analysed to provide estimates of the human and animal work inputs and crop yield outputs of the Egyptian agro-ecosystem before the Nile flood was brought under control. The estimates were found to be internally consistent. In terms of human food production per unit land area, the system was outstanding, exceeding that of western Europe at that time. The food output per unit human labour input was high and the large draft animal population was shown to be an important element in maintaining the fertility of the system. The estimate of human carrying capacity, 4.5 per hectare, was used to calculate the population of Egypt and the estimates were compared with those from historical demographic studies.
