Abstract
THE first Imperial Sugar Cane Research Conference, which was opened on July 20 by Dr. Drummond Shiels, M.P., is the second of these conferences of overseas research and administrative men convened by the Empire Marketing Board on a crop rather than on a science basis. The first was the Wool Research Conference held last year. The object is to get a clear picture of research in widely scattered countries, so that the gaps can be clearly seen and a general programme of research for the Empire worked out.
