1. C.V. = 10.1%, and df for EMS = 27.
2. The F-test indicated no statisical difference at the alpha = 0.1 probability level; therefore an LSD value was not calculated.
Bolding indicates entries yielding equal to highest yielding entry within a column based on Fisher's protected LSD (P = 0.10).
Planted: October 22, 1999.
Seeding Rate: 22 seed/foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Dothan loamy fine sand.
Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.3.
Fertilization: 40 lb N, 0 lb P2O5, and 0 lb K2O/acre.
  50 lb N/acre after 1st, 2nd, and 3rd harvests.
Management: Moldboard plowed and rototilled.
Previous Crop: Summer fallow.
 
Test conducted by A. R. Blount and A. W. Watson.
