Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE) bookplate.

The Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE) promotes the scientific development of English agriculture. It was established in 1838 with the motto "Practice with Science"[1] and was known as the English Agricultural Society until it received its Royal Charter and present name from Queen Victoria in 1840.[2]

The organization's purpose was to support agricultural research, education and practice, connecting scientists and farmers.[3] The first Royal Agricultural Show was held in 1839. The Royal became an important yearly event in Victorian life. Towns competed to host the week-long national agricultural show, which was held in a different location each year. It was widely reported about by both agricultural and general newspapers.[1] From 1969 until 2009, the Royal Show was held at Stoneleigh Park, near Kenilworth, in Warwickshire.[4]

From 1840 to 2002 the organization published the Journal of the Royal Agricultural Society of England.[5][6][7] The society presents a number of awards yearly at its annual Bledisloe Day.[8] Archives of the society are held at the Museum of English Rural Life.[9][10] Additional materials are held at Stoneleigh.[11]
