Abstract
I think it is time to open the panel. On my left respectively are Bill Waters, Professor of Entomology and Forestry, University of California, Berkeley; Gerald S. Walton, Biometrician, Northeastern Forest Experiment Station, Hamden; and Leo Cadogan, Forest Pest Management Institute, Canadian Forestry Service, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. My name is Dan Schmitt, Program Manager, Northeastern Forest Experiment Station, U.S.F.S., Broomall, Pa. I am going to ask each of the panelists to discuss field test design and data analysis for pesticide applications in the context of three general areas: (1) field and pilot tests, (2) current approaches to experimental tests, and (3) suggestions and possibilities for improving experimental tests.
