2011 MSU Short List of Suggested Wheat Varieties

Every year the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station conducts Wheat and Oat Variety Trials of  public and private varieties.  These variety trials are grown in eight locations throughout different growing regions in the state.  These trials may be grown on Experiment Stations or grower cooperator’s farms.  Variety entry is voluntary and dependent upon the respective seed owner for participation.   2011 MSU Wheat & Oat Variety Trials – Complete Publication

This publication lists those wheat varieties which have demonstrated superior productivity in the MSU Wheat and Oat Variety Trials and summarizes their characteristics.   Adaptiveness and performance of wheat varieties often varies considerably depending upon climatic differences inherent in regions of Mississippi and the Mid-South, particularly as latitude ranges from north to south.  Thus, variety performance is analyzed and presented independently for the Delta region, north Mississippi and south Mississippi.   This information is intended to evaluate variety genetics and traits which may help you better assess relative wheat productivity and profitability in future seasons.
