5 Introduction The Uniform Wheat Variety Trial (UWVT), presented in the following pages, is coordinated and implemented by numerous Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension faculty and staff, and Syngenta personnel. We appreciate the cooperation from numerous Texas A&M AgriLife County Extension Agents, producers, and private industry groups that contribute time, property, and seed to conduct these field trials. Wheat market classes within these yield trials included Hard Red Winter Wheat (HRWW), Soft Red Winter Wheat (SRWW) and Hard Red Spring Wheat (HRSW). During the wheat production season, Texas producers planted 5.9 million acres of wheat, which was up slightly from 5.8 million acres in 2012 according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). Texas wheat production in 2013 was 64 million bushels, down 40% from the yield in Good yields were harvested in the Blacklands and South-Central Texas. Severe drought and multiple freezes in both the High Plains and Rolling Plains reduced yield potential in both of those areas. Due to the variation caused by the multiple freeze events around the state, minimal data from 2013 is presented at the end of this publication. It is important that the reader make decisions from the information within this publication based on the rankings prior to the 2013 growing season; therefore, data from 2012 is re-presented in this publication. The purpose of this publication is to provide unbiased yield data, and disease and insect ratings for wheat producers across the state. Using this information, Texas wheat producers can make an educated decision concerning the most appropriate varieties for their geographic region. Variety Selection: Selection of small grain varieties is one of the most important decisions a producer will make. This decision impacts potential yield (forage and grain), seed quality (test weight and protein), disease and insect management and maturity. It is important that producers diversify the varieties planted on their farms. Variety diversification spreads the risk associated with potentially devastating pests (leaf rust, stripe rust, Hessian fly, Wheat streak mosaic virus, leaf curl mite, greenbugs, etc.) and yield loss from adverse environmental factors (freeze, drought, etc.). Producers are advised to select no fewer than 2 or 3 varieties to plant on their farms and preferably more, depending upon the size and location of fields. Variety selection should be based upon a combination of sound data from university trials and other reliable sources. Wheat varieties should be chosen based on multiple years of data (yield, pest resistance, grain quality and maturity). High yield over multiple years and multiple locations demonstrates a variety s ability to perform well over diverse environmental conditions. Stable yield performance is an excellent variety selection tool. It is important to consider decreasing yield over a 2 or 3-year time frame, which may reflect a change in disease and/or insect resistance. 1

6 When selecting a variety for the season, producers need to consider multiple year averages, recognizing the unusual climatic conditions that impacted yield and quality over the past several years. It is strongly encouraged that producers look at the 3 and 4-year averages where available, and to look at numerous relevant variety trial locations. There are typically 20+ wheat variety trials conducted across the state each year, and most of these contain analyses for multiple years. Interpreting the Data: Yield and test weight at each location have been analyzed using appropriate statistical procedures. The statistical analysis provides the mean, CV, and LSD values. It is important to note these statistical values to prevent misinterpretation of any replicated data. The mean is another term for the average. Therefore, a mean yield is the average of all plots within a trial. Individual variety yields can be compared to the mean yield to determine how these varieties performed within the trial (i.e. were they above or below average?). This average can also be used as an indication of the environment for that location. A low mean yield can indicate poor growing conditions were experienced in that season; likewise, a high yield average can indicate favorable growing conditions. The CV (Coefficient of Variation) value, expressed as a percentage, indicates the level of unexplained variability present within the trial. A high CV value indicates a lot of variability existed within the trial not related to normal variations that might be expected between the varieties in the test. This variability may be the result of non-uniform stands, non-uniform insect or disease pressure, variability in harvesting, or other issues. CV values in excess of 15% signify that there were problems in the trial, leading the reader to question the validity of the data as a true representation of varietal performance. The LSD (Least Significant Difference) value is a numeric range to help the reader determine if the varieties performed differently from one another within the trial. If the LSD value is 5 bu/ac in a trial in which Variety A yielded 36 bu/a and Variety B yielded 30 bu/a, then Variety A is said to be significantly better. In that same trial with an LSD value of 5 bu/ac at a 0.05 (5%) significance level, the statistical inference one could say is that Variety A would yield better than Variety B in 19 out of 20 trials conducted in which there was at least a 5 bushel difference in yield. In this hypothetical comparison, you might have a 20 th trial with a 5 bu/ac difference that there is not truly a difference between Variety A and B, but random chance caused the 5 bushel difference. 2

8 2013 Texas Region Overview Data from 2013 did not yield good data; therefore, 2012 data is re-presented first in this publication. Texas Blacklands: The Texas Blacklands had a good growing season for small grains compared to the remainder of the state. Dry fall conditions throughout much of the region led to difficulty in stand establishment. Substantial rainfall came again late in December. Multiple freezing events in the spring caused significant injury to the plants, but minor yield losses at the end of the season due to cool spring temperatures and a prolonged growing season. Development of rust and other diseases came late in the season. Most fields were sprayed to eliminate further spreading of diseases. Late season rainfall and numerous storms came steady, in some cases causing delayed harvest, shattered seed, and lodged plants in parts of this region. Texas High Plains: The Texas High Plains struggled this winter with a continuing severe drought and numerous spring freezing events. Stand establishment was very difficult early in the season due to the drought, if irrigation wasn t available. Many fields were lost due to the persistent drought throughout the entire growing season. Other challenges on wheat fields this winter included three hard freezes that came during the flowering to milk stage. Due to the cooler temperatures, insects were not a substantial issue. Diseases developed later and most were easily controlled. Texas Rolling Plains: The Texas Rolling Plains also struggled to produce wheat this winter. Dry conditions from the persistent drought early in the season led to reduced stands and crop loss. Freezing events later in the season had a significant effect on the wheat plants that were flowering and in the early stages of seed fill. Like most of the rest of the state, insects and diseases were not a major problem this year due to the cooler temperatures. South Texas: In the southern part of the state, conditions were not as favorable to planting dryland wheat fields this past winter. If irrigation was not available, stands were reduced and even lost. Periods of lower temperatures were experienced in this part of the state as well, but crop injury from these temperatures was not as substantial as other parts of the state. In some parts of South Texas, early dry conditions changed to late season storms with damaging winds and hail. Early season leaf and stripe rust were present at severe levels in some locations and resulted in yield losses if not controlled quickly. Insects were not a significant problem this season in this region. 4
