1.  Yields calculated as 50 lb/bu at 8.5% moisture.
2.  Expressed as a percentage of the total fatty acids from open pollinated seeds.
3.  Lodging rating:  1.0 = all plants erect to 5.0 = over 80% of plants down.
4.  C.V. = 12.4%, and df for EMS = 57.
5.  The F-test indicated no statistical difference at the alpha = .10 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 1, 2000.
Harvested: June 7, 2001.
Seeding Rate: 5 lb/acre in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Greenville sandy clay loam.
Soil Test: P = Medium, K = Medium, and pH = 6.3.
Fertilization: Preplant:  50 lb N, 50 lb P2O5, and 50 lb K2O/acre.
Topdress:  100 lb N/acre.
Management: Subsoiled and rototilled; Treflan and Poast used for weed control.
Previous Crop: Small grain.
Test conducted by A. E. Coy, M. D. Pippin, and R. R. Pines.
