2022 Nebraska Dry Edible Bean Variety Trials

In 2022, the Panhandle Research, Extension, and Education Center (PREEC) Dry Edible Bean Breeding Program conducted 12 replicated field trials at two locations, the Scottsbluff Ag Lab (Scotts80-Field- 7) at PREEC, and the Mitchell Ag Lab (Field J2) five miles to the north. The purpose was to evaluate which dry bean entries (varieties/ experimental lines) are best suited for western Nebraska. These trials have been ongoing for 41 years to assist the Nebraska dry bean industry in selecting varieties.
