*  Two-year average: 1999 and 2001.
1.  Yields calculated at 15.5% moisture.
2.  Grain quality rating:  1 = excellent to 5 = poor.
3.  Grain moisture at harvest.
4.  CV = 6.9%, and df for EMS = 42.
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 17, 2001.
Harvested: August 10, 2001.
Seeding Rate: 30,000 seeds/acre in 30" rows.
Soil Type: Cecil sandy clay loam.
Soil Test: P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.1.
Fertilization: 49 lb N, 98 lb P2O5, and 147 lb K2O/acre as preplant; 200 lb N/acre as sidedress.
Previous Crop: Soybean
Management: Chisel plowed and rototilled; Aatrex, Lasso, and one cultivation used for weed control;
irrigated 4.0 inches.
Test conducted by P. A. Rose.
