Northern Illinois Productivity Indexes for Wheat Varieties

2009, 2008, 2007, 2006

SOURCE OF YIELD DATA: University of Illinois Department of Crop Sciences Special Report
By: Emerson D. Nafziger, Darin K. Joos, Ralph W. Esgar and Brian R. Henry

Data from three U of I wheat trial locations in northern Illinois: Orr Research Center (Perry), DeKalb and Urbana.
Varieties were at three locations in 2006, 2007, 2009 and two in 2008. Yields of some varieties in 2007 were affected by winter injury.
The greater the number of locations and years for a variety, the more reliable the information.
Test Weights were the average of the three University of Illinois locations in northern Illinois in 2009.
