  1. WHEAT VARIETIES AND PRODUCTION FOR 2008 – 09 Steve Harrison School of Plant, Environmental, and Soil Sciences LSU AgCenter – Baton Rouge

  3. The Wheat Variety Testing System: Steve Harrison Kelly Arceneaux Glenn Schexnayder Statewide Variety Trials Derek Scroggs - Statewide Coordinator - Alexandria Rick Mascagni – Northeast RS, St. Jo & Winnsboro Dustin Harrell - Rice RS - Crowley Greg Williams- Iberia RS - Jeanerette Jim Hayes - Red River RS - Bossier City Steve Moore - Dean Lee RS – Alexandria Boyd Padgett – Macon Ridge RS Don Groth – Rice RS - Crowley

  4. Wheat Trial Locations: • SOUTH • Baton Rouge • Crowley • Jeanerette • NORTH • Alexandria • Bossier City • St. Joseph • Winnsboro

  5. Factors in Choosing Wheat Varieties: Two-year regional data Nearest location Yield Test Weight Maturity – planting and harvest dates Disease Reaction Hessian Fly

  6. How to Choose Wheat Varieties: • Make a ranked list of 6-10 based on two-year regional data. • List plus and minus for each. • Look at one-year regional and local data. • Highlight the best 3-4 on your list of 6-10 • Consider availability and cost last. • Plant more than one!!

  7. Results and Recommendations for 2008-09 North Louisiana
