He experimented with soil and became famous for his work as a botanist. He used peanuts and other plants to make new products. Before Carvers research, plants were only used for food and clothing. His creative approach to agriculture taught people that plants could be used to make many products, like rubber, ink, fuel, and paper, to name a few. |
