Title:
Pesticide research, 1957-1964
Description:
The contents of this folder primarily contain project proposals, papers, and correspondence related to the application of pesticides to plants, most notably the research of how charging particles could lead to greater agricultural engineering efficiency. Most of the material is authored by professors Henry D. Bowen and William E. Splinter and the results of their various research programs on pesticides. Also included are research notes, office memorandums and forms, and early drafts of the papers and proposals.
