Quoting Prévost: “Every year, on the estate of M. Delmas, near Montauban, I made large-scale experiments of which I shall speak in treating of the preventives of bunt. The first question concerns the immediate cause of this deterioration of the grain, which I discovered in 1804, and of which I have assured myself since by a large number of experiments and observations. But I shall first give an exact idea of what is called bunt, whether from my own observations or from those of authors who have shed the most light upon this matter.”
