卡佛

(b. 1864年7月12日. 1月. 5, 1943)

After another college refused to admit him because he was black, 卡佛 matriculated at Simpson College, Indianola, 爱荷华州, where he studied art and piano (1890-91). His art teacher Etta Budd, seeing his talent for painting flowers and plants, encouraged him to study botany at 爱荷华州 State Agricultural College in Ames, where he received a bachelor’s degree in agricultural science in 1894 and a master of science degree in 1896.

Noted American agricultural chemist, 农学家, and experimenter whose development of new products derived from peanuts, 甜土豆, and soybeans helped revolutionize the agricultural economy of the South. For most of his career he taught and conducted research at the Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) in Tuskegee, 阿拉巴马州.
