caption: Justus LIEBIG (1803-1873) pursuing chemical research in the food sector, he studied the system of extracting the essential constituents from meat and preserving them in a soluble and unalterable state, to allow the whole world to take advantage of the enormous livestock resources of America of the South. In the Fray-Bentos factory in Uruguay, meat extract has been manufactured there since 1864, distributed all over the world. Julius Liebig, was considered the 'father of agricultural chemistry'. The use of fertilizers and mineral fertilizers revolutionized the history of agriculture, but their systematic use only began in the mid-19th century, following the scientist's research.
