1. Yields calculated as 32 pounds per bushel at 12.5% moisture.  
2. C.V. = 8.5%, and df for EMS = 24.  
3. The F-test indicated no statistical 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.  
Harvested: June 9, 2000.  
Seeding Rate: 11 seeds per foot in 7" rows.  
Soil Type: Waynesboro loam.  
Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.3.  
Fertilization: Preplant: 20 lb N, 40 lb P2O5, and 60 lb K2O/acre.  
  Topdress: 70 lb N/acre.  
Management: Moldboard plowed and rototilled.  
Previous Crop: Canola.  
               
Test conducted by P. A. Rose, G. Rawls, and J. Stubbs.
