771213 Description

North Dakota Spring Wheat (771213)


The objective of this factorial experiment was to quantify the effects on spectral response of the major variables affecting wheat growth, development and yield. The factors and levels of each factor were: (1) Soil Moisture, Wheat and Fallow in 1976, (2) Variety: Olaf (semi-dwarf) and Waldron, (3) Nitrogen Fertilization: None and 39 lbs/acre, and (4) Planting Date: May 9 and 23.

This experiment was a continuation of the Spring Wheat North Dakota experiments for 1975 and 1966 and is also related to the Dryland/Irrigated Winter Wheat Experiments done at the Finney County, Kansas Agriculture Experiment Station during 1975, 1966, and 1977. These data were collected as a part of the LACIE Field Measurements Project. More information can be found in the LACIE Field Measurements Project Plan, 1976-77 and in the LACIE Field Measurements Data Library Catalog, Volume III, 1976-77 crop year.
