When comparing yields or sugars of two varieties, the values must differ by a value equal to or greater than the LSD given at the bottom of each column.  If they do not, then they were probably not different in this test.

Planted April 11, 2000; Harvested October 3-4, 2000.

1 Root yields have been tared 5%.
2 The Beet Sugar Development Foundation's 2000 Curly Top test results are omitted due to inconsistent
   ratings; a result of severe stand loss at cultivation.
3Commercial check varieties.
4Entered as a rhizomania resistant variety.

5Entered as a rhizoctonia resistant variety.
