East African Agricultural Journal, 2(1), 149-63. https://www.cabidigitallibrary.org/doi/full/10.5555/193716004560012-8325https://kalroerepository.kalro.org/handle/0/9403Part II deals with planting and cultivation in general and with the measures for coffee improvement (including resistance to diseases and pests) adopted by the experiment stations, with an account of the Malang and Besoeki Experiment Stations and the co-operating sub-stations situated on numerous private estates. A concise account is given of the work done on selection, hybridization of Robusta coffee, grafting and resistance to shot-hole borers (Xyleborus species), ArĂ¡bica improvement, the Conuga selections for intermediate altitudes and problems connected with the biology of flowering and fertility. Most of these problems have already been referred to in annual reports on research in Java which have already been reviewed in "Plant Breeding Abstracts". Finally the application of the methods used in Java and India to conditions in Kenya is discussed, and the great importance of co-operation between the planter and the experiment stations is stressed.enhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Report on a Visit to Southern India and Java Part II.-The Coffee Industry of Java (N.E.I.)
