"Heads Up" Plot west of Dumont

This plot is west of Dumont 3-4 miles. Planted in 30" rows on May 3rd, harvested on October 1, 2012. The results:
- 96-Day Hybrids
Pioneer P9675amx - 202.3 bu/a - 13.2% - 59.7#
Pioneer P9630am1 - 195.2 bu/a - 13.6% - 58.7#

- 98-Day Hybrids
Pioneer P9917am1 - 218.1 bu/a - 15.1% - 58.7#
Dekalb DKC48-12 - 196.4 bu/a - 12.8% - 59.9#

- 100-Day Hybrids
Pioneer P0062xr     - 206.3 bu/a - 14.4% - 57.0#
Dekalb DKC50-66 - 206.6 bu/a - 13.5% - 58.7#
Dekalb DKC50-66 - 202.0 bu/a - 13.6% - 58.4#
Pioneer P0062xr     - 206.5 bu/a - 14.6% - 56.6#

- The plot had an area on one end that not all of the hybrids reacted well to. The P9630 and the Dekalb 48-12 strips showed alot of variability in heighth and it was reflected in the yields of those two hybrids. P9917 was not bothered at all by that area. A big win here for P9917 but let's wait until we have a few more weighings in before declaring vistory.
