The relation between the cosmic ray (CR) intensity and the magnetic field strength observed by Voyager 1 and 2 during the period from 1986 through most of 1989 beyond 19 AU is examined. It is shown that these observations generally confirm the relation between changes in the CR intensity and the magnetic field intensity observed beyond 10 AU from 1981 to 1985. The CR intensity decreases when merged interaction regions (MIRs) are strong and dominating, and it fluctuates about a plateau when the effects of corotating MIRs are balanced by rarefaction regions. The CR intensity increases when the MIRs are weak and the magnetic field strength is relatively low.
