2 Content: INTRODUCTION This preliminary draft report is intended to serve as a popularized 200 summary of primary on-going cereal and oilseed crop variety investigations traditionally conducted on-station by the Agronomy Division at Northern Agricultural Research Center. These data represent approximately 2 percent of NARC-Agronomy s total research project effort on-station at Havre, and approximately 31 percent of the cereal and oilseed variety evaluation effort on-station. The remaining 69 percent of the cereal and oilseed variety evaluation effort not reported here is associated with larger nurseries featuring early generation or other unnamed experimental materials not of general interest to the public. Long-term data summaries reported here are limited to the most recent ten years, 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. However, variety performance data has been continuously collected and maintained at the Havre station for 89 years beginning in Detailed data pertaining to multiple performance characters, along with associated climatic and management inputs are presented for 200. Abridged, multi-year summaries for each trial are limited to two crop characters. 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. 200 Data: It should be noted that 200 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, such 200 data shall not constitute in any form a recommendation for or against any entry or practice included. 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 is then 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 MSU-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 109 (Revised February-March annually) Oat Varieties, Extension Service 2B 1096 (Revised periodically, last revised in 200) 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
