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. = 16.1%, 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 13, 2000.
Harvested: May 30, 2001.
Seeding Rate: 5 lb/acre in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Tifton loamy sand.
Soil Test: P = High, K = Medium, and pH = 6.0.
Fertilization: Preplant:  30 lb N, 60 lb P2O5,  and 90 lb K2O/acre.
Topdress:  89 lb N/acre.
Management: Moldboard plowed and rototilled; Treflan used for weed control; Diazinon used for insect control.
Previous Crop: Corn.
Test conducted by A. E. Coy and M. D. Pippin.
