Abstract

Work on the effects of showers on droughted maize necessitated measurement of water run-off down the main stems. The following two collecting devices have proved simple to construct and reliable in use. They are attached directly to the stem 1–3 in. above the ground-surface after the leaf-bases ensheathing the first internode have been removed, and the stem surface dried.
