Bird Control on Rice and Wild Rice In trials conducted on 15 fields in California, rice heads in the untreated control plots averaged only 53.3% as heavy as the heads harvested from plots that were treated twice with Bird Shield™ at a rate of one pint per acre. (Chart Below) |

In field Trials in Panama, Bird Shield™ was sprayed over pre-soaked seed to test its effectiveness in reducing bird predation on sprouting rice. In addition to untreated plots, a number of plots were covered with wire mesh to better judge the effects in an environment of zero bird predation. The results showed Bird Shield™ to be effective in increasing the survival rate of sprouts. There were no adverse effects on the crops at harvest. (Chart Below) |
