The advantages to be gained from the use of motion picture films showing various aspects of orchard work were mentioned at the annual conference of the New Zealand Fruitgrowers’ Federation. By this means, it was claimed, growers in the more remote districts would have the opportunity of seeing the methods employed at the plant research station. The films could also be made the vehicle of acquainting growers in, the various districts with methods employed by growers in other districts to the general benefit of those engaged in the industry. It was stated that growers at the present time had no opportunity of gaining knowledge at first hand of what was being done in other districts. A remit was passed asking the federation to make inquiries.
