1973 Alabama Grain Sorghum Performance Tests David H. Teeml!

Grain sorghum performance trials were conducted by the Auburn University Agricultural Experiment Station at seven locations in 1973. These

tests were conducted to give a comparison of hybrids entered in each test and were not intended for use as an absolute measure of the yielding potential of a hybrid in an area. location and it Performance of hybrids varies with

is therefore suggested that this report be carefully

studied before choosing a hybrid.

Experimental Procedures Cultural practices were uniform for all hybrids within a test. The

experimental design for all tests was a randomized complete block with four replications. Tests were planted with tractor-mounted cone planters and Location of the tests, plot size, and cultural

were hand harvested.

practices are listed in Table 1. Data Yield Yields were calculated from the weight of threshed grain from each plot. Yields are given in bushels per acre and were adjusted to 14 per

cent moisture and 56 lb. per bushel. At locations where bird damage was a problem yields were also estimated from 10 heads per plot which were protected by covering with perforated

paper bags soon after blooming.

Yields were calculated by multiplying

the average weight of grain per head obtained from 10 bagged heads x the number of heads per plot.

Plant Height Plant height was measured from the soil to the tip of the head in feet. Height can affect harvest efficieny; however, height and are acceptable in most of the sorghums

tested are medium in

this respect.

Head Exsertion Head exsertion was measured from the collar of the terminal or flag leaf to the base of the head. Poor head exsertion may result in excessive

green plant material in the harvested grain and damage to the lower part of the head from water accumulating on the terminal leaf.

Head Type Open or loose heads may be important in the humid Southeast. Open

heads allow better air movement and faster drying after rains or dew. This may be helpful in reducing damage from pests which attack the heads.

A rating of one for tight heads and three for open heads was used.

Mid-bloom One measure of relative maturity is the mid-bloom date. This is

the date when approximately one-half of the main heads in blooming. Date of mid-bloom is
