[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.

| Collaborator: | Jenny Stebbing, TJ McAndrew, UNL Agronomy Farm at ENREC, Ithaca, NE |
| Planting Date: | 10/9/2024 |
| Seeding Rate: | 1.35 million s/a |
| Harvest Date: | 7/14/2025 |
| Fertility: | 90 lb/a dry urea applied pre-plant; 50 lb/a 40 Rock applied in-furrow at planting |
| Herbicide/Fungicides: | Roundup, Liberty, 2,4-D applied after oats baled, ahead of disking. |
| Soil Type: | Yutan silty clay loam, Tomek and Filbert silt loams |
| GPS: | 41.165195, -96.415866 |
| Planting Info: | Planted 1.5” into very dry soil, tilled oat residue |
| Notes on Trial: | Plot area emerged poorly in the fall and led to uneven stand throughout the growing season. Late season rains helped wheat a bit but also delayed harvest and reduced test weights. Data should be used with caution, as the precipitation was exceptionally low and atypical. However, it may be useful in identifying wheats that have some drought tolerance when compared against more optimal years and multi-year summaries. No significant differences were detected for kernel weight and overall trial average was 15,050 seeds/lb. |
