Sering studied in both Strasbourg and Leipzig, before entering the civil service in Alsace in 1879. In 1883 he was sent by the Prussian government to North America to study agricultural competition.

Sering remarked that the Russian Revolution served to further enhance the transition of peasant land from common ownership to private ownership.[1]
