Although most yields were obtained in the best possible way, chances for yield differences still exist, due to variations in irrigation, rainfall, land uniformity, and other factors. For this reason, the results of these field trials should not be interpreted too closely. Small differences in yield or other data should probably be regarded as insignificant. Occasionally, results occur in demonstrations that cannot be readily explained. Keep in mind that, even in replicated research tests, relatively large yield differences between varieties can occur without being statistically significant.

Trade names of commercial products used in this report are included only for better understanding and clarity. Reference to commercial products or trade names in made with the understanding that no discrimination is intended and no endorsement by the Texas Cooperative Extension is implied. Readers should realize that results from one experiment, or one year, do not represent conclusive evidence that the same response would occur where conditions vary.
