1.  Yields calculated as 50 lb/bu at 8.5% moisture.
2.  Lodging rating:  1.0 = all plants erect to 5.0 = over 80% of plants down.
3.  C.V. = 11.1%, and df for EMS = 72.
4.  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 16, 2000.
Harvested: June 5, 2001.
Seeding Rate: 5 lb/acre in 7" rows.
Soil Type: Dothan loamy sand.
Soil Test: P = Medium, K = High, and pH = 6.5.
Fertilization: Preplant:  52 lb N, 65 lb P2O5, and 98 lb K2O/acre.
Topdress:  65 lb N/acre.
Management: Chisel plowed and rototilled; Treflan used for weed control.
Previous Crop: Corn.
Test conducted by A. E. Coy, M. D. Pippin, and R. D. McNeill, IV.
