1 Values differing by less than 3 within a column may not represent true differences in yield.
2 Cultivar yield ranking may vary from year to year. Decisions are therefore best made using data with the greatest number of years

Rust races have overcome genetic resistance over many years, with some varieties being significantly impacted.

PBR Status: PBR91 PBR78 indicates varieties protected under PBR 91 or PBR78.

1 Lodging scores range from 0 to 9. A high score is undesirable

2 Cultivar lodging rankings may vary from year to year. Decisions are therefore best made using data with the greatest number of years.

3 2025 had minimal to no lodging due to drought impact on plant growth.

PBR Status: PBR91 PBR78 indicates varieties protected under PBR 91 or PBR78.
