2022 Forage Trial Results at Moccasin
Statistical analyses were performed using R Statistical Software. Fisher’s protected LSD (Least Significant Difference) is not significant when P-value is greater than 0.05, or when CV exceeds 15 (for grain yield only). The top performer in each category is indicated by bold and asterisk, while just bold indicates statistical equivalence to the top performer. To determine a statistically significant difference between lines, the difference must be equal to or larger than the LSD value.
Forage harvest targeted the milk stage of seed development.
Key
Height-Average plant height, excluding awns, at maturity
Heading Date-Julian date when visual estimate shows primary heads from half the plants are fully emerged from the boot
Forage Moisture-Moisture content of forage at time of harvest
Forage Yield-Reported on a dry matter basis
Forage Crude Protein-Crude protein content of forage material
ADF-Acid detergent fiber, measure of feed quality. Smaller value=higher quality
NDF-neutral detergent fiber, measure of feed quality. Smaller value=higher quality
DDM-digestible dry matter, measure of feed quality. Larger value=higher quality
RFV-relative feed value, a unitless measure of feed quality. Larger value=higher quality
Grain Yield-Reported on 12% moisture basis
Test Weight- Reported on 12% moisture basis
Grain Protein- Reported on 12% moisture basis
