1 The Minnesota Corn Hybrid Evaluation Program is conducted by the University of Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station to provide unbiased information for use by corn growers when they choose hybrids to buy and grow. The program is financed in part by entry fees from private seed companies that chose to enter their hybrids for testing. Test zones, locations and maturities are: Southern Zone: Lamberton, Waseca, and Plainview. Early Maturity Trial 105 Relative Maturity (RM) and earlier. Late Maturity Trial 110 and 115 RM. Central Zone: Morris and Rosemount. Early Maturity Trial 95 RM and earlier. Late Maturity Trial 100 and 105 RM. Northern Zone: Staples and Rothsay. Testing Procedure: Entries Each corn seed company could enter up to six hybrids per 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 and enter hybrids in each test. For this reason, there may be more than six hybrids for a company in a test. Presentation of Data Yields in tables on pages that follow are given for individual locations along with yields and harvest moisture contents averaged across locations for CORN GRAIN Companies participating in the 2001 hybrid corn grain trials.

Box 391, Harlan IA Hybrids are ranked within a maturity group by moisture content averaged across locations for Least Significant Difference We show LSD values with a 0.2 alpha level which means that when two hybrids differ in yield by the LSD value or more 1 one can be 80% confident that the two hybrids differ in yield potential. The higher yielding one is the better hybrid from the yield standpoint. If the yield difference between two hybrids is less than the LSD, they probably do not differ significantly in yield potential.
