Description

Sectional Committee: Physics

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London', in the B section due to its interest for agricultural research, although Proceedings A might be where those looking for technical details would turn. Suggests modifying the title, as the title as it stands would require the paper to be rewritten from a physical perspective. Is not sure if the authors have the inclination to undertake a work satisfactory to physicists.

[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London']

Endorsed on verso as received 15 April 1936 and 18 May 1936.
