Location: Western Triangle Agricultural Research Center (WTARC), Conrad, MT.

Personnel: John H. Miller, Julie Prewett and Gadi V.P. Reddy, WTARC, Conrad, MT, and Phil Bruckner and Jim Berg, MSU Plant Science Dept., Bozeman, MT.

The uniform, winter wheat intrastate nursery and four off station locations were grown 2014. Off station trials were grown north of Cut Bank, MT, north of Devon, MT, near the ‘Knees’ east of Brady, MT, and northeast of Choteau, MT in Teton county.

Results: Winter wheat intrastate data are shown in Tables 1 and 2. The preliminary A data are shown in Table 3 and the advanced nursery data is presented in Table 4. Off station plots were harvested at Choteau, Cut Bank, Devon, and the ‘Knees’. The data are presented in Tables 5 thru 11, with soil test results presented in Table 1 of the soil test results section.

The 2014 growing season at WTARC was a little cooler than average with a wetter than normal June. The June rain was very timely with respect to the small grain plots.

Intrastate trial average yield was about16 bu/a higher than the six year average. With test weight one half pound lighter and protein one half percent higher.

Grain yields and test weights at the ‘Knees’ were 2.9 bu/a and 0.7 lb/bu higher than the four year average. Protein at the ‘Knees’ were equal to the four year average (Table 10 and 11). Grain yields at Devon were much higher than the four year average. Test weights at the Devon location were three and a half pounds per bushel higher than the four year average, whereas the protein was one percent lower than the four year average (Tables 8 and 9). The data for Choteau are presented in Tables 5 and 6. Yields at Choteau were 10 bu/a higher than the three year average. The test weight was the same as the three year average, with protein being slightly lower. Plots at Cut Bank received hail as is reflected in the yield and test weight data (Table 7). There is no long term table for Cut Bank.

Top yielding varieties at the Choteau location were Yellowstone, Jagalene, and Bearpaw. MT1286, MT1090, and Accipiter were the high yielding varieties at Devon. Top yielders at the ‘Knees’ include Yellowstone, Decade, and Colter. At Cut Bank, the top yielding wheats were MT1138, MTW08168, and MTS0826-63.

 

Off station cooperators: Bradley Farms, north of Cut Bank, MT

Brian Aklestad, north of Devon, MT Aaron Killion, east of Brady, MT Inbody Farms, northeast of Choteau, MT

Detailed descriptions of most of the varieties tested are included in Extension Bulletin 1098 “Performance Summary of Winter Wheat Varieties in Montana”, available at County Agent Offices. Additional observations concerning the varieties are presented in the following pages. MWBC FY2015 Grant Submission Plans: A similar project will be proposed for FY 2016.
