* Note:  The following varieties were planted at this location in Fall 2000: GA921221E16, GA931104A26,
GA931463E27, SS-518 GXT, and VA96W-158.  However, due to extensive deer predation on wheat head these 
varieties were dropped from the tests.
1.  Yields calculated as 60 pounds per bushel at 13.5% moisture.
2.  Deer predation on head.
3.  C.V. = 13.9%, and df for EMS = 129.
4.  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 16, 2000.
Harvested: June 6, 2001.
Seeding Rate: 22 seeds per foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Dothan loamy sand.
Soil Test: P = Medium, K = High, and pH = 6.5.
Fertilization: Preplant: 33 lb N, 65 lb P2O5, and 98 lb K2O/acre.
Topdress: 65 lb N/acre.
Management: Chisel plowed and rototilled.
Previous Crop: Corn.
Test conducted by A. E. Coy, M. D. Pippin, and R. D. McNeill, IV.
