1. Yields calculated as 32 pounds per bushel at 12.5% moisture.

2. C.V. = 6.2%, 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 27, 1999.

Harvested: May 30, 2000.

Seeding Rate: 11 seeds per foot in 7" rows.

Soil Type: Cecil sandy clay loam.

Soil Test: P = Medium, K = High, and pH = 6.5.

Fertilization: Preplant: 28 lb N, 56 lb P₂O₅, and 84 lb K₂O/acre.

Topdress: 60 lb N/acre.

Management: Moldboard plowed and rototilled.

Previous Crop: Canola.
