This study aims to contribute to research on early british indian economic history, in the framework of the colonial transformation of indian agriculture. It is organized in three large sections. The first part investigates the general political background and british treatment of the Nawab of Awaadh. The second section on ecological principles aims to prepare the ground for the third part, which handles the central Doab's agrarian history from the end of th 18th century until 1850 with reference to deforestation and the consequences for thr regio's agricultural development during the course of the 19th century.
