It will be seen from the above tables that the average weight 
of a bunch previous to trimming is approximately 3 lbs. (The 
cuttings were weighed before bunching; as a result the yield in 
pounds includes the weight of trimmings.) As the yield in pounds 
and ounces of the sprayed and unsprayed rows was kept the 
entire season, the total number of bunches obtained from the 
sprayed and unsprayed rows can be estimated. It can be shown 
from the first section of Table I, that 61.1 per ct. of the total 
average number of bunches for the three cuttings on the un- 
sprayed row are primes, also that 38.9 per ct. of these bunches 
are culls; while from the second section it can be shown that 
81 per ct. of the total average number of bunches for the three 
cuttings on the sprayed row are primes, and the remaining 19 
per et. are culls. ; 
By first estimating the total number of bunches from the total 
yield of each row, then from the total number of bunches esti- 
mating the number of prime and cull bunches, and arranging 
these in a table together with the total yield, the difference 
between the sprayed and unsprayed row for the entire season 
will be as shown in Table II.
