Minnesota Varietal Trials of Selected Crops

To help growers select varieties best adapted to a specific area, the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station compares varieties in trial plots at St. Paul, Becker, Crookston, Grand Rapids, Lamberton, Morris and Waseca, and in farmers' fields. Crop varieties are grown in replicated plots at each location, and factors affecting their yield and characteristics are as nearly the same as possible for all varieties at each location.
