(Continued)
1. Quality factors taken from the replicated silage trial at Tifton.
2. Quality samples analysis by Cumberland Valley Analytical Services, Inc., Maugansville, MD 21767.
3. This variable is calculated using University of Wisconsin Corn Silage Evaluation System - Milk 2000 and reported at
lbs milk/ton of dry matter (DM) and lbs milk/acre.
4. CV = 6.3%, and df for EMS = 35.
5. CV = 7.4%, and df for EMS = 35.
6. CV = 10.7%, and df for EMS = 204.
7. The F-test indicated no statistical differences at the alpha = .10 probability level; therefore an LSD value was not
calculated.
Bolding indicates entries performing equally to highest performing entry within a column based on Fisher's protected
LSD (P = 0.10).

Evaluation of Corn Hybrids for Silage, 2008, Irrigated (Continued)
1. CV = 10.1%, and df for EMS = 105.
2. CV = 7.2%, and df for EMS = 105.
3. The F-test indicated no statistical differences at the alpha = .10 probability level; therefore an LSD value was
not calculated.
Bolding indicates entries yielding equal to highest yielding entry within a column based on Fisher's protected
LSD (P = 0.10).
Planted:
March 27, 2008.
Harvested:
July 18, 2008.
Seeding Rate:
34,000 seeds/acre in 30" rows.
Soil Type:
Tifton loamy sand.
Soil Test:
P = High, K = Medium, and pH = 6.8.
100 lb N, 15 lb P2O5, and 200 lb K2O/acre as preplant; 163 lb N/acre as sidedress.
Fertilization:
Previous Crop:
Soybean.
Subsoiled and bedded, rototilled; Prowl and Atrazine used for weed control; Lorsban used for
Management:
insect control; Telone II used for nematode control; irrigated 4 inches.
