1.  Yields calculated at 15.5% moisture.
2.  Grain quality rating:  1 = excellent to 5 = poor.
3.  Grain moisture at harvest.
4.  CV = 10.4%, and df for EMS = 69.
5.  The F-test indicated no statistical differences 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: April 18, 2001.
Harvested: August 29, 2001.
Seeding Rate: 26,500 seeds/acre in 30" rows.
Soil Type: Waynesboro loam.
Soil Test: P = Very High, K = High, and pH = 6.3.
Fertilization: 50 lb N, 47 lb P2O5, and 70 lb K2O/acre as preplant; 100 lb N/acre as sidedress.
Previous Crop: Soybean
Management: Subsoiled, chisel plowed, and rototilled; Aatrex and Lasso used for weed control.
Test conducted by P. A. Rose, G. Rawls, and J. Stubbs.
