the field survival of Kearney was 70 percent in comparison with only 15 percent for Reno. In years when winter killing is not serious the yield of Kearney has not been superior to that of Reno or Ward. Malting tests with Kearney have been made at Nebraska and found to be very satisfactory. The Barley and Malt Laboratory at Madison, Wis., has reported mediocre malting quality, primarily because of small kernel size and high nitrogen. In tests in Texas in 1950, Kearney was found to have some resistance to greenbugs.
