Wheat Samples
No marked increase in the , i incidence of sprout damage :in wheat samples has been ‘noted by the Wheat Research i j Institute, according to its di- ’ I rector, Mr R. W. Cawley. I Mr Cawley said that the . flow of samples had dropped II to about 40 a day from areas [ from Ashburton to Dunedin. - He said that most of these ■ samples would no doubt be ■ from lines which had been harvested for some time. ■ While so far the incidence i of sprout damage had been 1 small and there had been no i marked increase in it, it 1 could be expected that there t would be some sprouting in ; wheat awaiting harvesting if - the present damp and mild i weather continued. i The institute is now await- > ing the start of harvesting in •I Southland.
