Barley Grain Performance, 2000-2001
Barley varieties were planted at this location in Fall 2000. However, extensive deer predation on the barley head caused considerable variation in performance among plots within the test.  After carefulanalysis and review of this data, it is the opinion of the editors that the results of this trial may not accurately reflect the performance potential of all test entries. Since this data could be misleading ifused in making decisions concerning variety selection, we have chosen not to present them in this publication.
