His most important contribution to agriculture was perhaps his introduction of the methods of cultivation of Jethro Tull into France with his publication in of TRAITÉ DE LA CULTURE DES TERRES 1750-1761. But Duhamel was above all a great advocate of the Tree in France and his numerous works on the cultivations of trees and shrubs as well as forests and forest maintenance are among his most important contributions. Previous to this work Duhamel had published his TRAITÉ DES ARBRES ET ARBUSTES QUI SE CULTIVENT EN FRANCE 1755; and LA PHYSIQUE DES ARBRES 1758. This continuation of "notre travail sur les Forêts" the author says in his Preface is in this case "purement pratique"; and his aim to place simplified methods of cultivation "within the reach of all sorts of readers." He divides his work into six books: 1 on terrain exposure climate choice on trees; 2 Different methods of propagating trees; 3 Care of young trees; 4 Transplanting; 5 Forests; 6 Maintenance of Woods and Revitalization of damaged Forests. illustrated by the fine line engravings this is indeed the work Duhamel most intended for a practical audience.
