Abstract
The objective of this presentation is to share the results of our wide scale farmer strip trials conducted in 1995 and 1996 seasons. In 1995 Northrup King had over 400 farmer strip trial locations and each location was ranked by independent third party crop scouts for level of European Com Borer infestation (None, Low, Moderate, Severe). In 1996 we expect to harvest over 700 locations and will rank these locations using the same scale. At the time of this writing, we still have many of these locations to harvest and the compilation of ranking etc. still needs to be accomplished. The preliminary data for 1996 is showing very similar trends as we saw in 1995.
