Assessing Hail and Freeze Damage to Field Corn and Sorghum [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
8 pp., 6 photos, 4 tables, 1 illustrationWhen a crop has been damaged by hail, it is important to be able to gauge the extent of the damage, the potential for recovery of the damaged crop, and the actions that might be necessary to maximize the recovery

Experimental Study on Crop Damage by Hail

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Meteorology, 1985
The effect of hailfall on the yield of wheat and soybean was studied by the hailfall simulating method and the leaf-cutting method. A hailfall simulating apparatus was developed making use of stones instead of hailstones to approach the reproduced damage to the natural one.
