A pole with long tape is helpful. Smoke will also work. Once the wind direction is determined, all the materials necessary for the treatment are placed up wind from the EMS field. EMS is observed at the bottom of the tube as a translucent droplet. The tube is shaken five to ten times vigorously and placed in the shade.
Maize pollen is collected and filtered to eliminate anthers.
Collected pollen is poured into a disposable cylinder and 2 ml of pollen is measured. Wearing gloves and the gas mask, the cap of the tube which contains oil and EMS is opened very carefully. The pollen is poured into the tube and the cap is screwed tightly. During shaking it is not necessary to wear the coveralls and the gas mask. After putting on protective clothes, EMS pollination can begin.
