Corn Earworm Control: Formulations
for DDT dust and 1% for the untreated check. An exhaustive study followed this experiment in an attempt to eliminate pollination and yield damage without sacrificing the excellent control obtained. At the end of these trials, however, it wasconcluded that oil solutions of DDT were not safe enough for a general recommendation.
