“The mission of the Alabama Variety Testing Program is to provide research‐based, unbiased
results on the performance of various crop hybrids, cultivars, and varieties to the agricultural
community in our state. We are intent on conducting these trials in a manner that will result in
maximum biological yield through methods common to the top‐producing farms in Alabama.
We are committed to providing this information in a rapid, timely manner for its use during the
decision‐making process. The success of the program rests upon our ability to help Alabama
producers provide a safe, dependable source of food and fiber for all families as well as economic
sustainability for theirs.”
