Control of pest
The All-Union Research Institute of Plant Protection is developing new preparations which will become reliable allies for agricultural workers in their efforts toward higher crops. They include rodan, used most successfully for combating the loose smut of wheat and barley; gliftor, the “terror” of marmots and small rodents; entobacterin -3, destroying more than 60 kinds of leafeating caterpillars; and ratindan used for combating mice and rats in warehouses and livestock sheds.—Novosti.
