Zone 14

Buckwheat, Chokecherry, Grass (brome), Hemp, Potato

EFFICACY/CROP TOLERANCE/ SCREENING TRIALS

Proponents must submit the “Efficacy, Crop Tolerance and Screening Trials Application Form” (Appendix D, Attachment 1) for each trial for which a bid is being made. 

Location of the trial must be identified and efforts to ensure sufficient pest pressure at the site must be documented and submitted with the proposal.

Bids for trial locations in differing zones than indicated may be made with documented support that the crop is grown and that the pest occurs in the proposed zone. Preference may be given to locations in the zone specified for trial distribution purposes.

Efficacy/Crop Tolerance Trials are available for the following:
