The average yield of the standards at Abbotsford was 21.2 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, VENZA R yielded 22% (Relative Yield of 122%) more than the average (19.8 t/ha) of the standard hybrids for the number of test-years indicated (5). ****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 (2012-2016).
