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

2. C.V. = 3.5%, 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: November 15, 1999.

Harvested: May 23, 2000.

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

Soil Type: Greenville sandy clay loam.

Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.2.

Fertilization: 9 lb N, 54 lb P₂O₅, and 27 lb K₂O/acre.

60 lb N/acre.

Management: Subsoiled and rototilled.

Previous Crop: Peanut.
