1. Yields calculated as 60 pounds per bushel at 13.5% moisture.

2. C.V. = 6.2%, and df for EMS = 36.

Bolding indicates entries yielding equal to highest yielding entry within a column based on Fisher's protected LSD (P = 0.10).

Planted: December 1, 1999.

Harvested: May 23, 2000.

Seeding Rate: 22 seeds per foot in 7" rows.

Soil Type: Greenville sandy clay loam.

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

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

Topdress: 60 lb N/acre.

Management: Subsoiled and rototilled.

Previous Crop: Peanut.

Test conducted by A. E. Coy, M. D. Pippin, and R. R. Pines.
