Small grain variety trials are conducted annually by scientists of the Louisiana Agricultural Experiment Station to evaluate grain yield, agronomic performance and disease reaction of varieties and advanced lines. The trials are conducted at seven LAES research stations representative of the major soil and climate regions of the state. Entries are included in the trials based upon previous performance or at the request of the originating agency.
