Summary Statistics | Yield (bu/ac) | Test Weight (lb/bu) | Protein (%) | Plant Height (in) | Grain Weight (1000 seeds/lb) |
Standard Error | 3.9 | 0.7 | 0.2 | 0.8 | 0.67 |
LSD[3] | 6.6 | 1.2 | 0.4 | 1.3 | 1.13 |
Mean[4] | 90.8 | 57.3 | 10.2 | 34.9 | 14.58 |
CV[5] | 4.3 | 1.3 | 2.3 | 2.2 | 4.6 |
[1] Yield values corrected to 12% moisture content. Bolded values indicate highest LSD grouping.
[2] Protein corrected to 14% moisture content, the correction factor used in analytical standards. Turkey and Scout 66 excluded from protein LSD groups due to known high protein contents.
[3] For differences between varieties that are equal to or greater than the LSD value, the chance that the difference is significant is 90%.
[4] Mean performance of all plots in the trial.
[5] Coefficient of Variation (CV) indicates the quality of a trial, and lower than 15 indicates a high-quality trial. For CV>15, there was higher than expected variability in the field or the data and the results should be used with caution.
Multi-year averages only include varieties that were tested in all years (2023, 2024, and 2025). Sites are Box Butte county in 2023, 2024, and 2025; Perkins county in 2023 and 2025; and Scotts Bluff county in 2025. For management details, consult individual site reports.
