Abstract
  • Grain is produced on upwards of 100,000 acres in the Klamath Basin including nearly 50,000 acres within the Klamath Reclamation Project. Susceptibility to late spring frosts has historically limited winter cereal production and spring cereals have accounted for the majority of production. Klamath Basin Research & Extension Center (KBREC) cereal variety evaluation efforts have included both spring and winter cereal types in the past, but with a shortage of seasonal help, funding, and repeated failures due to bird predation, we discontinued winter wheat trials in 2010. In 2010, spring grain variety trials were only conducted on-site at KBREC on a mineral soil. These trials included the Oregon State University (OSU) Oregon Spring Elite Yield Trial (OSEYT) as well as the second year of the Forage Barley Variety Trial, begun in 2009 to evaluate the seed yield potential of these varieties (not their forage production), with the hope that commercial seed production of forage barley types would be a viable option here.
