The 2011 Kentucky Corn Hybrid Performance Test is now available online. The test is also linked at the Corn Testing Website. The multiple location average is the best overall indicator for hybrid performance for next season. Look at hybrids that performed near the top (with one least significant difference of the top-yielding hybrid). Hybrids from several companies and hybrids containing several genetic packages did well. Compare the university data to other hybrid tests from independent sources.
The 2011 Corn for Silage Performance Test is also available. This test reports hybrid performance (forage yield and forage quality) for two locations. Again, the multiple location average is the best indicator for hybrid performance for next season.
