Scott,
the
at the Perth OMAF-office in
Stratford said there were
Cepcerns regarding the spr-
ing grain, but' no problems
showed up during
harvesting.
Mr. Scott noted that corn
root wormis always a
problem. He said with strong
winds experienced earlier
this summer corn that had
not been treated during
planting was knocked ,down.
Mr. Scott said treating the
corn root problem does not
always provide complete
control.

said white bean crops would
be good this year. Mr. Scott

for Huron County. He said
there were some problems
with drought and 'some in-
sec't-d am ag e.
Mr. Scott noted that in
Perth County, corn crops
would be above average this
year. He said they definitely
would be better than last
year as last year was a poor
one for the crops.
