*  Triticale variety.
1.  C.V. = 6.7%, and df for EMS = 30.
2.  The F-test indicated no statistical difference at the alpha = 0.10 probability level; therefore a      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:	October 23, 2002.
Seeding Rate:	27 seed/foot in 7" rows.
Soil Type:	Dothan loamy fine sand.
Soil Test:	P = High, K = High, and pH = 6.3.
Fertilization:	Preplant:	40 lb N, 0 lb P2O5, and 0 lb K2O/acre, plus 50 lb N/acre on December 3 and 16, 2002.
	Topdress:	50 lb N/acre after 1st and 3rd harvests.
Management:	Moldboard plowed and rototilled.
