Content:

This report is intended to serve as a popularized 2017 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 21 percent of NARC-Agronomy’s total research project effort on-station at Havre. The remaining 79 percent of the research not reported here includes cultivar and product evaluations 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 102 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 2017. 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.

2017 Data:

It should be noted that 2017 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, 2017 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 likely 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 nearly, if not 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 every head possible 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 NARC On-Station 2 performance of a “variety of interest” for the years it was actually tested with that of a designated “check” or reference variety grown in the same trial in the same years. The performance of the variety of interest is then expressed as a percentage 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, so no entries with less than three years of 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 Montana Agricultural Experiment Station: Winter Wheat Varieties, Extension Service 2B 1098 (Revised February-March annually) Spring Wheat Varieties, Extension Service 2B 1093 (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.
