Extract

In a previous paper published in 1937 Carroll & McMahon discussed the possibility of effecting control of potato root eelworm (Heterodera schachtii) by means of trap cropping with potatoes. During the past two seasons further experiments, designed with the same object in view, have been carried out. The additional information obtained from these experiments and from the experience of the past two years is presented in the present paper.
