Content

This report is intended to serve as a popularized 2014 summary of “primary” on-going cereal and oilseed crop variety investigations traditionally conducted on-station by Agronomy at Northern Agricultural Research Center. These data represent approximately 20 percent of NARC-Agronomy’s total research project effort on-station at Havre. The remaining 80 percent of the research not reported here includes cultivar and product evaluation associated with larger nurseries featuring early generation or other unnamed experimental materials not of general interest to the public; and/or experimental seed treatment, fertility, fungicide and insecticide evaluations. Long-term data summaries reported here are limited to the most recent ten years. This is largely due to need for report brevity and the fact that most varieties have approximately a 10-year life span before they are replaced in common use with newer materials having superior production characteristics. Variety performance data has been continuously collected and maintained at the Havre station for 99 years beginning in 1916. Collection of sawfly stem cutting data was added beginning in 2003.

Detailed data pertaining to multiple performance characters, along with associated climatic and management inputs are presented for 2014. Abridged, multi-year summaries for each cereal trial are limited to three crop characters (yield, test weight and sawfly rating) while the safflower summary is limited to two crop characters (yield and oil content). Individuals desiring detailed data for other than the current year may contact the research center or refer to previous editions of this report for the year(s) of interest.

2014 Data

It should be noted that 2014 data tables in this report represent varietal performance for a single crop year at a single location only, and thus cannot be considered representative of performance expected when differing conditions due to location, year and management are imposed. Therefore, by itself, 2014 data shall not constitute in any form a recommendation for or against any entry or practice included.

Please note that cereal research trial yield results recorded under wheat stem sawfly pressure are much higher than a producer should expect. Small plot variety trials are managed to assess maximum yield potential and are harvested in such a way that all stems and heads are picked up by the combine, regardless of lodging or cutting due to sawfly. Pickup guards coupled with an extremely slow ground speed and exceptionally low cutting height help researchers collect all heads in order to assess seed yield potential. If you are a producer in a wheat stem sawfly environment, although hollow stemmed varieties may be high yielding in research trials in your area, we recommend against growing those hollow stemmed varieties. Please be aware that if you seed hollow stemmed varieties with sawfly present, you are only creating a breeding ground for future generations of sawfly in your area and not helping combat the pest population.

Multi-Year Summary Data

Use of a “Comparable Average” provides a mechanism for “estimating” the performance of varieties over a period of time longer than that for which actual data is available for them. This is accomplished by comparing the performance of a “variety of interest” for the years it was actually tested with that of a designated long-term “check” or reference variety grown in the same trial in the same years. The performance of the variety of interest is then 1 NARC On-Station expressed as a percent of the check variety’s performance. This actual percentage or index is then applied to the actual long-term performance of the check to estimate the performance of the variety of interest had it been grown over the same long term. The reliability of comparable average figures improves with increasing years of actual evaluation. For this reason, no entries with less than three years actual data have been included in long-term summaries.

Other References

It is intended that this report be used as a supplement to variety performance summaries prepared by MSU’s Plant Science and Plant Pathology Department on statewide evaluations by the MSU-Montana Agricultural Experiment Station:

  • Winter Wheat Varieties, Extension Service 2B 1093 (Revised February-March annually)
  • Spring Wheat Varieties, Extension Service 2B 1098 (Revised February-March annually)
  • Barley Varieties, Extension Service 2B 1094 (Revised February-March annually)

These summaries include performance data, descriptions, quality assessments, disease and insect considerations, cropping district recommendations, cultural practices, and general crop production management information. These publications are available from MSU-Extension Service offices and can further be accessed via the Internet at the MSU Cereal Quality Lab website.

* Denotes counties traditionally served by NARC-Agronomy (Current off-station plot inventory for Chouteau County is abnormally high due to extensive cooperative wheat stem sawfly work at the McKeever farm near Loma. This site alone had 43.6% of NARC-Agronomy's total inventory of plots managed for 2014, but such is somewhat misleading due to all the breeder and entomology observation plots there.)

Note: A code letter after an experiment number signifies that the trial listed was not carried through to final report status due to one or more conditions outline below. Where more than one condition was involved, the code used denote the factor most responsible.

c = experiment planned, but CANCELLED 'prior' to actual plot establishment (proposal rejection or other reasons)

d = severe DROUGHT stress not associated with treatment differences

e = stand ESTABLISHMENT problems not associated with treatment differences f = FROST or winter injury not associated with treatment differences

g = GRANT proposal submitted / preliminary establishment only - subject to cancellation if funding not received

h = HAIL injury

I = INSECT injury

n = NATURAL calamity to include weather effects other than drought, freezing or hail

o = OTHER (human error - staff or cooperator, equipment malfunction, animal damage, vandalism, etc.)

p = PATHOGEN effects not associated with treatment differences

r = Grant proposal REJECTED 'after' significant establishment effort put forth - ie, continued in reduced format

s = SPRAY damage not associated with treatment differences

t = proposed grant project TERMINATED (after preliminary establishment) due to proposal rejection

u = undue, non-partitionable VARIABILITY

w = WEED infestation effects not associated with treatment differences

v = VIEW only - no formal data collection or analysis

x = plots in place, from previous endeavor - inactive current year, but retained for future viewing/reference

Long-term check variety is Yellowstone.

1 See MCES Bulletin 1098 or the Plant Sciences & Plant Pathology website for evaluation of other important variety performance characteristics to include protein, quality, disease resistance, etc. before making cultivar selecton decisions.

2 P = Private Variety, + = Protected Variety, ++ = PVP Title 5 or Title 5 Pending, HW = Hard White Wheat, CL = Clearfield Line.

3 No harvest due to spotty, poor stands unrelated to variety differences.

4 Percent of Yellowstone yield for the same data years as those in which a given entry was tested.

5 9-Yr Comparable Average = (x/y) * z where x = average yield of a given entry for years tested, y = average yield for Yellowstone for the same years, and z = 9-Yr average yield for the check variety Yellowstone.

Long-term check variety is Rampart.

1 See MCES Bulletin 1098 or the Plant Sciences & Plant Pathology website for evaluation of other important variety performance characteristics to include protein, quality, disease resistance, etc. before making cultivar selecton decisions.

2 P = Private Variety, + = Protected Variety, ++ = PVP Title 5 or Title 5 Pending, HW = Hard White Wheat, CL = Clearfield Line.

3 Percent of Rampart yield for the same data years as those in which a given entry was tested.

4 10-Yr Comparable Average = (x/y) * z where x = average sawfly rating of a given entry for years tested, y = average sawfly rating for Rampart for the same years, and z =10-Yr average sawfly rating for the check variety Rampart.

1 No. Days from January 1 (202 = July 21)

2 Volumetric yields are based on plot weights adjusted to uniform 8 % grain moisture.

NutraSaff had a reduced yield due to bird feeding late in the season.
