Notes

The World Grain Exhibition and Conference, announced in 1928 by the Canadian Minister of Agriculture, was conceived as an international gathering devoted to grain production, research, and trade. Held in Regina, Saskatchewan, in 1933, the twelve-day event brought together participants from across the principal grain-producing regions of the world and attracted substantial public attendance.

This volume comprises papers presented during the conference by specialists in agronomy, soil science, plant pathology, cereal chemistry, and entomology. Contributions are drawn from researchers and practitioners representing Canada, the United States, India, Egypt, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Siam, New Zealand, Hungary, and Roumania, reflecting the international scope of the meeting and its focus on scientific and technical aspects of grain cultivation and study.
