Abstract
Further spray experiments conducted this season have confirmed the value of zineb fungicides for controlling the serious downy mildew disease of onions. In these experiments plants sprayed with zineb yielded 20% more marketable onions than unsprayed plants and the disease was also greatly reduced in seed crops.
