We do various plots every year. Anything from variety to fungicide. I have never saw a plot that I trusted unless I did it myself. There are too many variables that affect results that I don't know existed if I don't do it myself. I do not like any plot that is 4 rows or less. I almost won't even look at a plot if it is two rows. There are too many things that can affect them especially shading, too much inconsistancy between row units, etc. I prefer to plant plots in atleast 8 row strips and I would really like them to run the length of my field.
well, that discards about 99 % of all Plots ! flatlick
and I do agree with you 100%
In all reality, Like Bill Moyer stated, If the plot does not confirm the PURPOSE of the plot ? Marketing !!!
It is scrapped, and not published, or manipulated and or partially reported !!!
