Book Description
Seed-potato treatments to prevent certain kinds of seed-borne diseases have been improved and simplified. The long-time soak in corrosive sublimate or formaldehyde solution was effective from the standpoint of disease control, but was impractical in large-scale operations because of the time consumed. In many parts of the country this method is giving way to the hot-formaldehyde treatment, which takes only a few minutes. The organic-mercury dip method affords the same advantage of timesaving without necessitating temperature control of the treating solution. Seed treatment is of proved value and although many potato growers are adopting the improved methods, this step toward profitable potato production should be more widely taken.
