Abstract

Winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is less winter hardy than hard red winter wheat (HRWW) (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars that are adapted to Nebraska. The objectives of this study were to (i) establish the effect of planting date, planting rate, and planting depth on winter survival of barley; (ii) determine how date, rate, and depth of planting affect agronomic traits such as yield, bushel weight, height, and emergence of barley; and (iii) recommend a system for seeding barley which will maximize the opportunities for winter survival and grain production. Two adapted winter barley cultivars, 'Hitchcock' and 'Dundy' were seeded at two depths (1.25 and 2.5 in.), two rates (40 and 80 Ib/acre), and three dates (1, 15, and 30 September) in western Nebraska []
