North Dakota/Minnesota Dry Bean variety trials

Fee assessment: $175.00/entry/location for all entries. NDSU Extension Service and the dry bean breeding program reserve the right to enter lines that may be popular in ND and MN. North Dakota State University is not responsible for providing information if tests are destroyed by weather-related disasters (e.g. flooding, frost, herbicide drift damage, etc.)

All plots: 4 rows of 20ft (later trimmed down to 12 ft), 30-inch spacing, 3 or 4 replications. Central two rows harvested.

Plant populations: small seeded - ~95,000 plants per acre (ppa)
                           medium seeded - ~70,000 ppa
                           large seeded - ~85,000 ppa

seed should arrive no later than May 5. All efforts will be made to incorporate lines arriving late, but no guarantees will be made.

Order quantity is the number of entries times the number of locations.
