1 Indexed for each site and then averaged. Index = 100 x (variety yield ÷ site yield). Values differing by less than 3 within a column may not represent true differences in yield.

2 hrs = hard red spring, efs = eastern feed spring, -a = awned

3 Cultivar yield rankings may vary from year to year. Decisions are therefore best made using data with the greatest number of years.

4 Good samples of these varieties are widely accepted by the milling industry. Some varieties are not accepted by some Wheat Board agents and/or flour mills due to unique quality traits. Consult the OWPMB or the variety sponsor for details.
