This, again, suggests another path for the 1983 trials. The high incidence of field rot obscured the storage rot, berry size and total yield data, hence these evaluations were taken from a duplicate trial on an area with low rot potential. These data (Table 4) suggested that higher rates of Dithane M-45 or ferbam decreased berry size but here again the results were variable so as not to be definitive. The problem of variability and a heavy infestation of one-third of the plots with cat briar also invalidated the yield results. These plots will be moved in 1983.

This, again, suggests another path for the 1983 trials. The high incidence of field rot obscured the storage rot, berry size and total yield data, hence these evaluations were taken from a duplicate trial on an area with low rot potential. These data (Table 4) suggested that higher rates of Dithane M-45 or ferbam decreased berry size but here again the results were variable so as not to be definitive. The problem of variability and a heavy infestation of one-third of the plots with cat briar also invalidated the yield results. These plots will be moved in 1983.
