The year was marked by record drought, record cold, and record heat that exacted a toll on the Oklahoma wheat crop. At the time of writing this report, 2011 Oklahoma wheat production is estimated to be approximately 74.8 million bushels or 38% less than 2010 (Table 1). Lower production was offset to some extent by higher prices with cash prices at harvest exceeding $8 per bushel at some locations. Table 1. Oklahoma statistics for 2010 and 2011 production years 2011 2010 Harvested Acres 3.4 million 3.9 million Yield (bu/ac) 22 31 Total bushels 74.8 million 120.9 million Most areas of the state had just enough moisture for wheat emergence in the fall of 2010. This moisture was quickly used but never replenished in southwestern Oklahoma and the western tier of counties in northern Oklahoma. As a result, early-sown wheat intended for grazing was parched by mid winter and never recovered. Most of the fields in this situation were “zeroed out” for insurance purposes and not harvested for grain. The same can be said for a good portion of the dryland wheat in the Oklahoma Panhandle where drought conditions were exacerbated by record low temperatures. This was especially true in Cimarron County where a mere 1.4 inches of precipitation occurred between planting and wheat maturity. Despite the harsh environmental conditions wheat at our Keyes test site averaged 22 bu/ac illustrating the benefits of fallow and confirming that wheat is an amazing plant. A few light rains and relatively large snowfall events gave wheat in central and northcentral Oklahoma just enough moisture to make it through the winter in good condition. Given the relatively good condition of the wheat crop in this region during December and January and the favorable price outlook, most farmers chose to topdress at average to above-average rates. The condition of wheat in this area rapidly deteriorated as February, March, and April passed without appreciable precipitation, however, and a large portion of topdress N remained on the soil surface and unavailable to roots. Rains finally arrived in northcentral Oklahoma in May and were just in time to retain at least part of the yield potential present. These rains only added to the problem of too much moisture in northeastern Oklahoma where many growers were forced to aerially apply herbicides and nitrogen due to waterlogged soil conditions. Finally, Mother Nature offered a challenge for central and northcentral Oklahoma wheat producers in the form of late-May hail storms. The extent of hail damage is illustrated by the 19 bu/ac average yield at Kingfisher where wheat plots were estimated to be in the 35 – 45 bu/ac range prior to the hail event. Lowest average yield among the OSU wheat variety test sites was at Gage (9 bu/ac) where plots were grazed during the winter and inadequate moisture was available for recovery after grazing. Grazing reduced grain yield of wheat by an average of 12 bu/ac at our Marshall site. Highest average yield was at the McLoud site (48 bu/ac), which was sown after a full-season corn crop in a corn/wheat/double-crop soybean rotation. Drought combined with heat during grain fill can frequently result in shriveled seed, but this was not the case in 2011. Test weights were generally 60 lb/bu or greater in early-harvested wheat but decreased slightly in later-harvested wheat. Application of a foliar fungicide had no effect on average grain yield at Apache or Lahoma. This was not surprising, as very little foliar disease was present during the 2010-2011 production year. The most frequently observed disease of wheat in 2011 was barley yellow dwarf virus, which is transmitted by aphids. Infection probably occurred as a result of a late-winter or early-spring infestation of aphids and symptoms typically included purpling and yellowing but not stunting. In addition to barley yellow dwarf, there were a few reports of wheat streak mosaic virus and high plains virus in the Oklahoma Panhandle. While weeds were a problem, reports of excessive dockage and foreign material were not as widespread as in 2010. This was probably due to multiple factors, not the least of which was greater emphasis on wheat quality by grain elevator managers. It was made clear in 2010 that stricter dockage and foreign material standards would be in place for 2011 and most growers heeded the warning by placing greater emphasis on timely and accurate weed control.

Conventional plots were eight rows wide with six-inch row spacing. No-till plots were seven rows wide with 7.5-inch row spacing. Plots were 20 feet long and wheel tracks were included in the plot area for yield calculation. Conventional till plots received 50 lb/ac of 18-46-0 in-furrow at planting. No-till plots received 5 gal/ac of 10-34-0 at planting. The Apache, El Reno, Marshall dual-purpose (DP) trials were sown at 120 lb/ac. All other locations were sown at 60 lb/ac. Grazing pressure, nitrogen fertilization, and insect and weed control decisions were made on a location-by- location basis and reflect standard management practices for the area.

Dual-purpose wheat producers, for example, may find varietal characteristics such as grain yield after grazing and disease resistance to be a more important selection criteria than slight advantages in forage production potential. Forage-only producers might place more importance on planting an awnless wheat variety or one that germinates readily in hot soil conditions. Ultimately, fall for-age production is generally not the most important selection criteria used by Oklahoma wheat growers, but it is one that should be considered. Fall forage production by winter wheat is determined by genetic potential, management, and environmental factors. The purpose of this publication is to quantify some of the genetic differences in forage production potential and grazing duration among the most popular wheat varieties grown in Oklahoma. Management factors such as planting date, seeding rate, and soil fertility are very influential, and are frequently more important than variety in determining forage production. En-vironmental factors such as rainfall and temperature also play a heavy role in dictating how much fall forage is produced. All of these factors along with yield potential after grazing and the individual producer’s preferences will determine which wheat variety is best suited for a particular field. Site Descriptions and Methods The objective of the fall forage variety trials is to give producers an indication of the fall forage production ability of wheat varieties commonly grown throughout the state of Oklahoma. The forage trials are conducted under the umbrella of the Oklahoma State University Small Grains Variety Per-formance Tests at our El Reno and Stillwater, OK test sites. Weather data for these two sites are provided in Figure 1. A randomized complete block design with four replica-tions was used at each site. Forage was measured by hand clipping two 1-m by 1-row samples at random sites within each plot. Samples were then placed in a forced-air dryer for approximately seven days and weighed. All plots were sown at 120 lb/A in a conventionally-tilled seedbed and received 50 lb/ac of 18-46-0 in furrow at planting. Fertility, planting date, and harvest date information are provided in Table 1. Fall forage production and date of first hollow stem in winter wheat varieties during the 2010-2011 crop year Jeff Edwards Richard Austin Jay Ladd Small Grains Extension Specialist Senior Agriculturalist Senior Lab Technician Results The 2010-2011 wheat production season will undoubt-edly go down as one of the driest, if not the driest, in Okla-homa history. While many areas of the state never received sufficient rainfall for uniform wheat germination, our two test sites received a timely rainfall in September which allowed for uniform germination and emergence of test plots (Figure 1). This was followed by two very timely one-inch plus rainfall events in October and November that allowed for ample forage Figure 1.

CR-2141.3 production. This was not the case in many areas of Oklahoma where early-season drought prevented fall forage production from reaching the 1,000 lb/ac mark. Forage yields at both sites were outstanding in 2010, and all varieties produced greater than 2,000 lb/ac of forage by early December (Tables 2 and 3). There were a large number of varieties in the top statistical grouping for forage yield (i.e. all varieties within this group produced statistically-equivalent forage yield) at both sites. In fact, only four cultivars (Mace, Shocker, Everest, and Jagger) fell outside of the top statisti-cal grouping for forage yield in 2010 at Stillwater. The top grouping at El Reno included more than 50 percent of the cultivars tested. A similar trend was observed for the two-year forage averages at both sites with most varieties producing statistically-equal forage yields by early December. There is greater separation among varieties when three-and four-year forage yields are considered and some consistent top performers such as Fannin, Duster, and OK Bullet can be identified. This is not to say that some of the newer varieties cannot produce forage yields equal to or greater than these three varieties, and rankings could change as we have more data on newer varieties. Three- and four-year variety com-parisons, however, are extremely valuable in evaluating the stability of forage production over a range of environments. Table 3.

Date of first hollow stem, for example, will determine how long fall forage production can be utilized into the spring and should be considered in con-junction with fall forage production. Varieties such as TAM 401 and Fannin are outstanding forage producers but also have very early date of first hollow stem. Varieties such as Doans and Endurance are not consistently as good of forage producers as TAM 401 and Fannin but are above-average forage producers and much later to first hollow stem. Dual-purpose producers should consider these two parameters in conjunction with grain yield after grazing before making a variety choice. First hollow stem data are reported in ‘day of year’ (day) format. To provide reference, keep in mind that March 1 is day 60 (except for leap years). Average occurrence of first hollow stem at Stillwater and El Reno in 2011 was day 63 and 64, respectively. This was approximately one week earlier than average occurrence of first hollow stem in 2010, and was probably a result of warmer temperatures combined with drought stress. There was a 29-day range in occurrence of first hollow stem at Stillwater and a 24-day range at El Reno. Environment plays a role in occurrence of first hollow stem, CR-2141.4 Oklahoma State University, in compliance with Title VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Executive Order 11246 as amended, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and other federal laws and regulations, does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, age, religion, disability, or status as a veteran in any of its policies, practices, or procedures.

The year was marked by record drought, record cold, and record heat that exacted a toll on the Oklahoma wheat crop. At the time of writing this report, 2011 Oklahoma wheat production is estimated to be approximately 74.8 million bushels or 38% less than 2010 (Table 1). Lower production was offset to some extent by higher prices with cash prices at harvest exceeding $8 per bushel at some locations. Table 1. Oklahoma statistics for 2010 and 2011 production years 2011 2010 Harvested Acres 3.4 million 3.9 million Yield (bu/ac) 22 31 Total bushels 74.8 million 120.9 million Most areas of the state had just enough moisture for wheat emergence in the fall of 2010. This moisture was quickly used but never replenished in southwestern Oklahoma and the western tier of counties in northern Oklahoma. As a result, early-sown wheat intended for grazing was parched by mid winter and never recovered. Most of the fields in this situation were “zeroed out” for insurance purposes and not harvested for grain. The same can be said for a good portion of the dryland wheat in the Oklahoma Panhandle where drought conditions were exacerbated by record low temperatures. This was especially true in Cimarron County where a mere 1.4 inches of precipitation occurred between planting and wheat maturity. Despite the harsh environmental conditions wheat at our Keyes test site averaged 22 bu/ac illustrating the benefits of fallow and confirming that wheat is an amazing plant. A few light rains and relatively large snowfall events gave wheat in central and northcentral Oklahoma just enough moisture to make it through the winter in good condition. Given the relatively good condition of the wheat crop in this region during December and January and the favorable price outlook, most farmers chose to topdress at average to above-average rates. The condition of wheat in this area rapidly deteriorated as February, March, and April passed without appreciable precipitation, however, and a large portion of topdress N remained on the soil surface and unavailable to roots. Rains finally arrived in northcentral Oklahoma in May and were just in time to retain at least part of the yield potential present. These rains only added to the problem of too much moisture in northeastern Oklahoma where many growers were forced to aerially apply herbicides and nitrogen due to waterlogged soil conditions. Finally, Mother Nature offered a challenge for central and northcentral Oklahoma wheat producers in the form of late-May hail storms. The extent of hail damage is illustrated by the 19 bu/ac average yield at Kingfisher where wheat plots were estimated to be in the 35 – 45 bu/ac range prior to the hail event. Lowest average yield among the OSU wheat variety test sites was at Gage (9 bu/ac) where plots were grazed during the winter and inadequate moisture was available for recovery after grazing. Grazing reduced grain yield of wheat by an average of 12 bu/ac at our Marshall site. Highest average yield was at the McLoud site (48 bu/ac), which was sown after a full-season corn crop in a corn/wheat/double-crop soybean rotation. Drought combined with heat during grain fill can frequently result in shriveled seed, but this was not the case in 2011. Test weights were generally 60 lb/bu or greater in early-harvested wheat but decreased slightly in later-harvested wheat. Application of a foliar fungicide had no effect on average grain yield at Apache or Lahoma. This was not surprising, as very little foliar disease was present during the 2010-2011 production year. The most frequently observed disease of wheat in 2011 was barley yellow dwarf virus, which is transmitted by aphids. Infection probably occurred as a result of a late-winter or early-spring infestation of aphids and symptoms typically included purpling and yellowing but not stunting. In addition to barley yellow dwarf, there were a few reports of wheat streak mosaic virus and high plains virus in the Oklahoma Panhandle. While weeds were a problem, reports of excessive dockage and foreign material were not as widespread as in 2010. This was probably due to multiple factors, not the least of which was greater emphasis on wheat quality by grain elevator managers. It was made clear in 2010 that stricter dockage and foreign material standards would be in place for 2011 and most growers heeded the warning by placing greater emphasis on timely and accurate weed control.

Conventional plots were eight rows wide with six-inch row spacing. No-till plots were seven rows wide with 7.5-inch row spacing. Plots were 20 feet long and wheel tracks were included in the plot area for yield calculation. Conventional till plots received 50 lb/ac of 18-46-0 in-furrow at planting. No-till plots received 5 gal/ac of 10-34-0 at planting. The Apache, El Reno, Marshall dual-purpose (DP) trials were sown at 120 lb/ac. All other locations were sown at 60 lb/ac. Grazing pressure, nitrogen fertilization, and insect and weed control decisions were made on a location-by- location basis and reflect standard management practices for the area.

Dual-purpose wheat producers, for example, may find varietal characteristics such as grain yield after grazing and disease resistance to be a more important selection criteria than slight advantages in forage production potential. Forage-only producers might place more importance on planting an awnless wheat variety or one that germinates readily in hot soil conditions. Ultimately, fall for-age production is generally not the most important selection criteria used by Oklahoma wheat growers, but it is one that should be considered. Fall forage production by winter wheat is determined by genetic potential, management, and environmental factors. The purpose of this publication is to quantify some of the genetic differences in forage production potential and grazing duration among the most popular wheat varieties grown in Oklahoma. Management factors such as planting date, seeding rate, and soil fertility are very influential, and are frequently more important than variety in determining forage production. En-vironmental factors such as rainfall and temperature also play a heavy role in dictating how much fall forage is produced. All of these factors along with yield potential after grazing and the individual producer’s preferences will determine which wheat variety is best suited for a particular field. Site Descriptions and Methods The objective of the fall forage variety trials is to give producers an indication of the fall forage production ability of wheat varieties commonly grown throughout the state of Oklahoma. The forage trials are conducted under the umbrella of the Oklahoma State University Small Grains Variety Per-formance Tests at our El Reno and Stillwater, OK test sites. Weather data for these two sites are provided in Figure 1. A randomized complete block design with four replica-tions was used at each site. Forage was measured by hand clipping two 1-m by 1-row samples at random sites within each plot. Samples were then placed in a forced-air dryer for approximately seven days and weighed. All plots were sown at 120 lb/A in a conventionally-tilled seedbed and received 50 lb/ac of 18-46-0 in furrow at planting. Fertility, planting date, and harvest date information are provided in Table 1.

While many areas of the state never received sufficient rainfall for uniform wheat germination, our two test sites received a timely rainfall in September which allowed for uniform germination and emergence of test plots (Figure 1). This was followed by two very timely one-inch plus rainfall events in October and November that allowed for ample forage Figure 1.

CR-2141.3 production. This was not the case in many areas of Oklahoma where early-season drought prevented fall forage production from reaching the 1,000 lb/ac mark. Forage yields at both sites were outstanding in 2010, and all varieties produced greater than 2,000 lb/ac of forage by early December (Tables 2 and 3). There were a large number of varieties in the top statistical grouping for forage yield (i.e. all varieties within this group produced statistically-equivalent forage yield) at both sites. In fact, only four cultivars (Mace, Shocker, Everest, and Jagger) fell outside of the top statisti-cal grouping for forage yield in 2010 at Stillwater. The top grouping at El Reno included more than 50 percent of the cultivars tested. A similar trend was observed for the two-year forage averages at both sites with most varieties producing statistically-equal forage yields by early December. There is greater separation among varieties when three-and four-year forage yields are considered and some consistent top performers such as Fannin, Duster, and OK Bullet can be identified. This is not to say that some of the newer varieties cannot produce forage yields equal to or greater than these three varieties, and rankings could change as we have more data on newer varieties. Three- and four-year variety com-parisons, however, are extremely valuable in evaluating the stability of forage production over a range of environments. Table 3.

Date of first hollow stem, for example, will determine how long fall forage production can be utilized into the spring and should be considered in con-junction with fall forage production. Varieties such as TAM 401 and Fannin are outstanding forage producers but also have very early date of first hollow stem. Varieties such as Doans and Endurance are not consistently as good of forage producers as TAM 401 and Fannin but are above-average forage producers and much later to first hollow stem. Dual-purpose producers should consider these two parameters in conjunction with grain yield after grazing before making a variety choice. First hollow stem data are reported in ‘day of year’ (day) format. To provide reference, keep in mind that March 1 is day 60 (except for leap years). Average occurrence of first hollow stem at Stillwater and El Reno in 2011 was day 63 and 64, respectively. This was approximately one week earlier than average occurrence of first hollow stem in 2010, and was probably a result of warmer temperatures combined with drought stress. There was a 29-day range in occurrence of first hollow stem at Stillwater and a 24-day range at El Reno.
