Abstract

GROWMORE BULLETIN No. 9 (“Orchard Spraying for Commercial Growers”. H.M. Stationery Office. Pp. 14. 4d. net) condenses a large amount of modern knowledge into useful practical suggestions for the spraying of fruit trees. Much of the text relates to the routine care of equipment in order to avoid replacement during war-time. Adjustment of the angle of spray cone to give good average coverage without wind loss conserves spray fluid and saves time. Modern research stresses the necessity for high-pressure spraying, and the corresponding variations in equipment and practice receive full treatment in the bulletin. Mr. J. Turnbull is the author, and much information about the economics of large-scale spraying is included.
