1. C.V. = 6.8%, and df for EMS = 63.
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 4, 1999.
Seeding Rate: 27 seed/foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Cecil sandy clay loam.
Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.3.
Fertilization: 49 lb N, 98 lb P2O5, and 147 lb K2O/acre.
  50 lb N/acre after 1st, 2nd, and 3rd harvests.
