| Can't talk about the effect of the in-furrow method because it's not something that produces results right away, but it sure made my communication with the Syngenta rep frequent | Can't talk about the effect of the in-furrow method because it's not something that produces results right away, but it sure made my communication with the Syngenta rep frequent |

| Expect that In-furrow will spread as much as they have overseas because we are seeing new pests and diseases. Hope it will become available for products other than Amistar. Hoping for good effect on the next crop, too. | Expect that In-furrow will spread as much as they have overseas because we are seeing new pests and diseases.

| I didn't do in-furrow because I'd returned the machine to Syngenta. Next year, I'm planning to buy Amigo and start in-furrow again. | I didn't do in-furrow because I'd returned the machine to Syngenta. Next year, I'm planning to buy Amigo and start in-furrow again. |

I'm planning to continue using it until the effect is seen in all the crops we grow in rotation (potatoes, beets, and barley/wheat/oat). | I don't expect its effect to show up in 2-3 years.

| I like that this is part of a global study by Syngenta. Would be even better if the questionnaire was adjusted more to the situations in Japan. | I like that this is part of a global study by Syngenta. Would be even better if the questionnaire was adjusted more to the situations in Japan. |
| I think things went pretty much perfectly as this was my fourth year. Both the yield and the quality were good. Others in this area were also successful, but I had even better results. | I think things went pretty much perfectly as this was my fourth year. Both the yield and the quality were good.

| I'm satisfied that we see less Thanatephorus cucumeris now after years of struggle. My potatoes have smoother skin now. | I'm satisfied that we see less Thanatephorus cucumeris now after years of struggle. My potatoes have smoother skin now. |
| Impossible to put 100% of the instructions into practice. We grow many kinds of crops and the weather intervenes, too. We don't have enough labor. The combinations of fertilizers and control products that can be used together are too complicated. | Impossible to put 100% of the instructions into practice.

| Potatoes have smoother surface now. The fields we used the in-furrow method had relatively high yields. Its effect is more prominent in years when the overall potato yield was poor. | Potatoes have smoother surface now. The fields we used the in-furrow method had relatively high yields.

| Suspect that whoever put together this questionnaire don't know anything. I don't understand the intention of these questions. And they ask similar questions over and over. | Suspect that whoever put together this questionnaire don't know anything. I don't understand the intention of these questions.

| We couldn't use the in-furrow method this year because the machine was broken, but it's fixed now so we'll be able to use it next year.
