1.  C.V. = 11,2%, and df for EMS = 30.
2.  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 31, 2000.
Seeding Rate: 22 seed/foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Dothan loamy fine sand.
Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.3.
Fertilization: Preplant: 40 lb N, 0 lb P2O5, and 0 lb K2O/acre.
Topdress: 50 lb N/acre after 1st, 2nd, and 3rd harvests.
Management: Moldboard plowed and rototilled.
Previous Crop: Summer fallow.
Test conducted by A. R. Blount and J. Jones.
