**Hybrids were compared to the average of two standards – NK G4066 and 39D81. This average was assigned a value of 100. The average yield of the standards at Abbotsford was 17.2 tonnes of dry matter per hectare.
***The relative yield must be compared to the standard dry matter yield shown in the last column. For example, HLS009 yielded 18% more than the average (18.2 t/ha) of the standard hybrids for the number of test-years indicated (7).
****The number of years in which the hybrid was tested (during the last five) multiplied by the number of locations where it was tested. Trial conducted at Abbotsford (2000-2004), Saanich (2000-2002) and Cloverdale (2003).
