Agricultural Rep. CROP INJURY WIDESPREAD ■ A combination. of many weather factors normally associated with the month of June has caused widespread injury in crops across the county, especially corn. Strong winds, hail, freezing temperatures and cool daytime daytime conditions have set back crops 2 to 3 weeks. Apple orchards in the Bowmanville, Newcastle area were hit quite hard with hail. Frost was prevalent right across the county and combined with the stress of herbicide application, application, many corn fields have severe, leaf burn. In almost all cases, the corn crops will • recover, however, warm weather conditions are required to speed up growth of all crops. Haying operations operations are now well underway, however' it has been slowed down due to poor drying conditions. The 1980 crop year has gotten off to a slow start, but hopefully with the arrival of summer, things will pick up.
