Agrarian academies in Italy in XVIIIth century (second part) - The author wishes to highlight the lay-out of agrarian academies in Italy, the social and cultural outlines of academic members, the academies as institutions, the connection between the agrarian societies and the state as well as new eighteenth’s century scientific culture and tradition. The picture is very complex but the author outlines the revival of the old academical models, the difficulties to enlist qualified persons in the field of agronomy, the short weight of the scientific outlook, the subordination of the academies to the state as indication of the difficulties in the self-organisation of the civil society.

Keywords: Agrarian academies; agriculture; intellectuals; reforms; science; social history.
