Small Grain Trials Results

Small grain for forage production is one of the largest crops grown in Comanche County and the surrounding areas. It is typically one of our more reliable crops, especially on dryland fields. Small grains have many uses in the area from grazing and grain to silage production. It provides flexibility that other crops do not offer.

For the last several years the Comanche County Agents office along with the Small Grain Specialist for Texas A&M Crop Sciences Department have conducted small grain research trials in the county.

These trials include over 60 varieties of small grains including wheat, oats, rye, triticale, barley and ryegrass, as well as some blends of grains.

The county trials are limited to 20 varieties typically utilized and available in the area.

Below you can see the results of up to 4 years of data from the county trials. If you would like a copy or more information call or come by the office.
