1. C.V. = 6.6%, 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 25, 200.
Seeding Rate:	22 seed/foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type:	Greenville sandy clay loam.
Soil Test:	P = Medium, K = High, and pH = 5.6.
Fertilization:	Preplant:	50 lb N, 49 lb P₂O₅, and 49 lb K₂O/acre.
	Topdress:	50 lb N/acre after 1st, 2nd, and 3rd harvests.
Management:	Subsoiled and rototilled.
Previous Crop:	Peanut.

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