5 Introduction The sttewide Cool-Seson Annul Forge Vriety Tril dt presented in the following pges re the results from eight trils coordinted nd implemented by numerous Texs A&M AgriLife Extension nd Reserch fculty nd stff. We lso pprecite the coopertion from Texs County Extension Agents, producers, nd privte industry prtners tht contributed loctions, property, seed, time nd other ssets to conduct these field trils. The purpose of this publiction is to provide unbised yield nd qulity dt for forge producers cross the stte. With this informtion, Texs forge producers cn mke educted decisions regrding the most pproprite vrieties for their geogrphic region. Vriety Selection: Selection of n pproprite cool seson forge vriety is one of the most importnt decisions producer will mke. This decision cn impct the potentil forge yield, forge nutritive vlue, disese nd insect mngement, nd mturity of the crop. It is importnt tht producers hve diversity in the vrieties plnted on their frms to minimize production risks. The choice of vrieties depends on the intended use of the crop (forge or dul-purpose) nd when forge is most needed. Even though totl forge production my be similr, certin species/vrieties tend to produce more forge during the fll, winter, nd/or spring. Vriety diversifiction spreds the risk ssocited with potentilly devstting pests (lef nd stripe rust, Hessin fly, whet curl mite, greenbugs, etc.) nd yield loss from dverse environmentl fctors (freeze, drought, etc.). Producers should select no fewer thn two vrieties to plnt on their frms nd preferbly more, depending upon size, loction, nd purpose of fields. Vriety selection should be bsed upon multiple yers of sound dt produced from university trils nd other relible sources. High yields over multiple yers nd multiple loctions demonstrte vriety s bility to perform well over diverse environmentl fctors. Stble yield performnce of forge is the best vriety selection tool. It is importnt to consider decresing yields over two or three yer time frme, which my reflect chnge in disese nd/or insect resistnce. When selecting vriety for the 206 seson, producers should consider the vribles tht limited yield in the previous growing seson; which my hve hd negtive impct on the results presented in the following pges. We strongly encourge producers to look t multiple yer verges nd to look t numerous relevnt vriety tril loctions. Forge qulity is often overlooked in n effort to mximize yield, but cn vry between vrieties nd species nd especilly over time. Producers should be wre of these differences nd tht forge qulity will influence rte of gin for livestock. Neutrl detergent fiber (NDF) nd cid detergent fiber (ADF) re mesurements often used s indictors of intke nd digestibility, respectively. NDF mesures totl fiber (cell wll components) nd is composed of lignin, cellulose, nd hemi-cellulose, wheres ADF mesures only the more reclcitrnt fiber components which include lignin nd cellulose. Totl digestible nutrients (TDN) is derived from crude protein (CP) nd ADF nd indictes digestible energy in forges using the following eqution: TDN (%) = *CP-0.77*ADF.

6 In vitro dry mtter digestibility (IVDM) is nother method of determining digestibility of forge though incubtion of ground smples in rumen fluid followed by n NDF fluid tretment. When interpreting results, ADF nd NDF vlues re inversely relted to intke potentil nd digestibility. Therefore, lower vlues re typiclly more desirble, while higher vlues re more dvntgeous for TDN, IVDM nd CP. Interpreting the Dt: Forge yield t ech loction hs been nlyzed using pproprite sttisticl procedures. The sttisticl nlysis provides the men, CV, nd LSD vlues. It is importnt to note these sttisticl vlues to prevent misinterprettion of ny replicted dt. The men is nother term for the verge. Therefore, men yield is the verge of ll the plots within tril. Individul vriety yields cn be compred to the men yield to determine how these vrieties performed within the tril (i.e. were they bove or below verge?). This verge cn lso be used s n indiction of the environment for tht loction. A low men yield cn indicte poor growing conditions during the seson; likewise, high yield verge cn indicte fvorble growing conditions. The CV (Coefficient of Vrition) vlue, expressed s percentge, indictes the level of unexplined vribility present within the tril. A high CV vlue indictes considerble vribility existed within the tril not relted to norml vritions tht might be expected between the vrieties in the test. This vribility my be the result from non-uniform stnds, non-uniform insect or disese pressure, vribility in hrvesting, or other issues. Generlly, CV vlues in excess of 25% signify tht there were problems in the tril, leding the reder to question the vlidity of the dt s true representtion of vrietl performnce. The LSD (Lest Significnt Difference) vlue is numeric rnge to help the reder determine if the vrieties performed differently from one nother within the tril. If the LSD vlue is 2 ton/c in tril in which Vriety A yielded 6 ton/c nd Vriety B yielded 3 ton/c, then Vriety A is sid to be significntly better. In tht sme tril with n LSD vlue of 2 ton/c t 0.05 (5%) significnce level, the sttisticl inference one could sy is tht Vriety A would yield better thn Vriety B in 9 out of 20 trils conducted in which there ws t lest 2 ton/c difference in yield. In this hypotheticl comprison, you might hve 20 th tril with 2 ton/c difference tht there is not truly difference between Vriety A nd B, but rndom chnce cused the 2 ton difference. 2

8 205 Texs Region Overview Texs Blcklnds: The Texs Blcklnds strted off hving good growing seson for winter smll grins. However, s the seson progressed, excessive rinfll set in during lte winter nd continued throughout the spring. This moisture llowed for the estblishment of folir diseses nd coupled with sturted soils, contributed to overll yield reductions. The moisture mde grzing nd mechnicl hrvest difficult due to the continued periods of wet soil conditions. Texs High Plins: Producers in the Texs High Plins struggled this winter with continuing severe drought in the fll. Rinfll events were few nd fr between initilly, but nering the ltter portion of the growing seson, moisture ws more bundnt. Strong storms t the end of the seson produced high winds nd hil tht took out some of the fields in this re. The High Plins lso delt with uncommon fungl diseses not typicl for the region. Due to the wet spring, stripe rust reched threshold levels, cusing some growers to pply fungicides. Hed scb ws lso reported in some fields tht were cut for silge s well. Overll, yields were bove verge for both irrigted nd drylnd fields. Texs Rolling Plins: The Texs Rolling Plins producers experienced dry fll nd erly winter much like the producers in the High Plins, but springtime brought good, timely showers to smll grin fields. Insects nd disese were present throughout much of the region. Stripe rust ws prticulrly problemtic this seson long with root rot nd bove verge reports of mosic viruses. Strong storms ner the end of the seson produced strong winds nd hil tht negtively impcted some fields. South Texs: In the southern prt of the stte, fll plnting went s norml with good soil moisture for plnting. As the fll progressed, sufficient rinfll continued llowing for good emergence nd stnd estblishment. Excessive rinfll from the lte winter through the spring left mny smll grin fields stnding in wter. Folir diseses were plentiful in this re due to the moisture. Much like the Blcklnds, grzing nd mechnicl hrvest of smll grin fields in this re becme very difficult due to the prolonged wet soil conditions. 4
