WHAT'S NEW
PIONEER MARKETS
NEW SOY VARIETIES
In 1989, Ontario soybean growers
are being offered three new varieties
from Pioneer Hi -Bred Limited.
Pioneer (R) variety 9111, rated at
2850 heat units, has excellent standabil-
ity and produces high yields of grey
hilum soybeans, especially in fertile
loam soil. It is a short-statured, bushy
variety with strong spring emergence
and tolerance to phytophthora root rot.
Pioneer (R) 9161, along with its
strong stalks and good shattering resis-
tance, has high yield potential. Rated at
2950 heat units, it responds well to nar-
row row planting, offers fast spring
emergence, and has excellent tolerance
to phytophthora root rot.
Pioneer (R) 9272, a 3150 heat -unit
variety, has excellent resistance to lodg-
ing and good tolerance to phytophthora
root rot, brown stem rot, and iron defi-
ciency chlorosis. High podding height
and good shattering resistance make
harvesting easier.0
TRAP MONITORS
INSECTS IN GRAIN
An insect trap has been developed by
an Agriculture Canada scientist to help
farmers reduce their dependence on
chemicals to control bugs in grain bins.
The trap isn't meant to eliminate
insects, says Dr. Sam Loschiavo, but to
let a farmer know if he can use an alter-
native to chemicals by estimating the
number and kinds of bugs in the grain.
The 29 -cm perforated tube is pushed
into the grain for a week. Bugs walk
through the perforations and are trapped
in a holding tank. In many cases, the
bugs are feeding on mould or fungus and
can be eliminated by moving the grain or
using an aeration system.0
