Book excerpt: "Though use of plastic tubing for collecting maple sap has been hailed as the greatest advance ever made by the maple sugar industry, relatively few maple sugar producers are using tubing systems. To point the way toward greater and more efficient use of tubing systems, we summarize here the results and observations of our experiments with this method of sap collection. Certainly, if the efficiency of plastic tubing can be improved it will be more widely used, and the industry as a whole will benefit. In this report we have summarized the results and observations of tubing experiments conducted by the Northeastern Forest Experiment Station that suggest some ways in which this increased efficiency can be obtained.
