Field evaluation of seed treatments on winter wheat stand and yield, 2006

摘要

The effects of three seed treatments were evaluated on stand and yield of winter wheat ‘Brundage 96’ in a grower’s field near Cavendish, Idaho. Vincit FS and Vincit C were obtained from Cheminova (Lemvig, Denmark), and Dividend Extreme is a Syngenta product (Wilmington, DE). All were tested to determine effect on dwarf bunt (Tilletia controversa).All treatments were applied to untreated seed before planting. The experiment was seeded on 14 Oct 2005. Plots had 5 paired rows with 3-in. spacing and 10 in. from center to center of pairs and 20 ft long. The seeding rate was 24 seeds/ft2. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with 6 replicates. Plant height data (in.) were recorded as average height from ground to top of heads not counting awns. The experiment was harvested on 20 Aug 2006. Yield data (bu/A) and test weight (lb/bu) were recorded. Data were analyzed using ANOVA.
