Summary "Memoria sobre o melhoramento da cultura da Beira e da navegação do Mondego" by D. Antonio d'Almeida is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book discusses the issues related to agricultural practices in the Beira region and the navigation of the Mondego River, specifically focusing on the historical context and the impact of human activities on the river's behavior and its surrounding environment. The content of the book examines the historical problems of flooding in the Mondego River, identifying causes such as deforestation and improper land management. D. Antonio d'Almeida suggests preventive measures to mitigate flooding, including the construction of horizontal ditches to retain water and the planting of trees on hillsides to absorb rainwater. The publication emphasizes the need for coordinated action and proper governance to implement these enhancements, arguing that such measures would not only improve agriculture but also facilitate navigation along the river, thereby benefiting local communities. D'Almeida draws on historical references and empirical observations to substantiate his proposals, aiming to create a more sustainable relationship between the landscape and the agrarian society dependent on it.
