1 Field Crop Trials Results Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station and the College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences The Minnesota Corn Evaluation Program is conducted by the University of Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station to provide unbiased information for use by corn growers when they choose which brand of corn to buy and grow. The program is financed in part by entry fees from private seed companies that chose to place their entries for testing. Test Locations Test zones, locations and maturities are as follows: Southern Zone: Lamberton, Rochester and Waseca Early Maturity Trial Maturity (RM) and earlier entries. Late Maturity Trial RM and later entries. Central Zone: Hutchinson, Morris and Rosemount Early Maturity Trial - 96 RM and earlier entries. Late Maturity Trial - 97 RM and later entries. Northern Zone: Crookston and Staples Only two sites were planted in the northern zone this year because of wet conditions. A third set was planted in Waseca, but the data are averaged across the Crookston and Staples zones. The Staples site suffered hail damage in the late milk stage. Estimates are 80% leaf loss and 35% yield reductions. Locations of 2014 corn grain trials.

2 Testing Procedure Entries: Seed corn companies choose their entries for each zone. Entries in each trial were based on the relative maturity (RM) provided by the company. The University of Minnesota Corn Testing Committee could also choose entries in each test. All locations tested three replications for each entry. Presentation of Data Yields are given for individual locations along with yields and harvest moisture contents averaged across locations for Reported yields are adjusted to 15.5% grain moisture. Entries are ranked within a maturity group by moisture content averaged across locations for Identification of Traits Genetic modifications of entries are identified using generic terms to describe the trait without identifying the specific event for genetic modification. For example Bt will indentify genetic modification for corn borer resistance but will not differentiate between the Bt 11 event, the YieldGuard corn borer event or the Herculex corn borer event. Identifiers will be: Bt = Europeon corn borer resistance CRW = Corn rootworm resistance GLY = glyphosate herbicide resistance LL = Liberty herbicide resistance Least Significant Difference The LSD (Least Significant Difference) figures at the bottom of the yield columns in the tables are statistical measures of variability in the trials. These values may be used to determine whether the difference between any two entries is likely to be a real difference or just natural variation. If the yield difference between two entries is equal to or greater than the LSD one can be confident that the two entries probably differ in yield potential. We show LSD values with a 0.2 alpha level, which means that when two entries differ in yield by the LSD value or more one can be 80% confident that the two entries differ in yield potential. The higher-yielding one is the better entry from the yield standpoint. If the yield difference between two entries is less than the LSD, the two entries probably do not differ significantly in yield potential. Project Leaders Tom Hoverstad and Jeff Coulter.
