Blight Resistant Corn Exports From Hawaii For Midwest
Hawaii's Metcalf Farms grows 1 100 acres of blight resistant hybrid seed corn for Pride Seed Co and four others supplying 25 to 30 percent of the nation's seed. The crop will be shipped to the Midwest to aid spring planting after last year's Southern corn blight cut yields by about 14.7 percent. Harold Barr says the seed is 100 percent effective against blight and will reach the mainland as snow covers mainland fields. Richard Metcalf, owner and Pride Seed president, moved 15 000 pounds of seed and 90 000 pounds of machinery to Hawaii last August to start the project on Kauai’s Waimea Valley amid sugar land leases from Kilauae Sugar Co.
