This report evaluates the agronomic performance of spring wheat varieties in environments and cropping methods representative of the southern triangle and Central Montana. The Moccasin location was hailed out prior to harvest. Late spring moisture provided for fair spring wheat yield levels on the other two recrop sites. Though fallow for 1.5 years, the Winifred site had limited soil water available at seeding. Unusually cool conditions in April and May helped maximize the plant growth from what soil water was available. Again, high rainfall in June helped offset this limiting factor.
