2022 Nebraska dry edible bean trial results

Results of the 2022 variety trials for dry edible beans conducted by the University of Nebraska Panhandle Research and Extension Center have been posted on the Nebraska Extension CropWatch website. The direct link for variety trial results for dry beans (as well as other crops such as field pea, millet, sunflowers and oats) is http://cropwatch.unl.edu/varietytest/othercrops. Or, navigate to the Other Crops Variety Trials page from the main CropWatch page (http://cropwatch.unl.edu ) by clicking on these links: management > variety testing > other crops. Results for the most recent three years are listed on that page. In addition, older variety trial results are archived on a separate page which is linked to the current variety-trial page.

Nebraska’s dry edible bean variety trials have been operated for 41 years as a service to the dry bean industry to evaluate which dry bean varieties and experimental lines from the public and private industry are best suited for western Nebraska. The 2022 trials were planted at two locations, the Scottsbluff Ag. Lab at the Panhandle Research and Extension Center (June 8), and the Mitchell Ag Lab, 5 miles to the north (June 3). UNL staff under the direction of Dry Bean Breeding Specialist Carlos Urrea did the planting, fieldwork, harvest, and analysis of results. floater, 1505 hours, AGCO SISU power, diesel CVT transmission, Air Max Precision 2 bed, stainless steel 70-ft. boom, Raven Viper 4, electric roll tarp $236,000

The dry bean report includes a description and summary of the trials, and tables that list yield, 100 seed-weight, and test weight adjusted at 14 percent moisture, and other phenological data for each variety within the market classes. In addition, the report includes detailed information about plot management, such as planting dates, seeding rates, herbicide treatments, row width, irrigation, and harvest dates. Pinto beans were exposed to UV light for 48 hours to verify the slow-darkening trait (yes = slow-darkening; no = regular pintos).

A total of 12 trials replicated trials were conducted at the two locations (Scottsbluff and Mitchell Ag. Labs): two plots each of Great Northern (22 entries), Pinto (48 entries), Light Red Kidney (12 entries), Navy (14), Yellow (7), and Black beans (13), Results were compiled by Urrea. He also acknowledged Panhandle Center Farm Manager Gene Kizzire and his team and the summer crew for help with agronomic management and thanked the Nebraska Dry Bean Commission for its financial support.

In addition to the website, the report will be published in the Bean Bag newsletter published by the Nebraska Dry Bean Growers Association.

A “genericized brand name” is a brand name that has come to be used as the name for that product, whether that particular company made it or not. Examples: Kleenex, Thermos and Coke. Canada has some that are all its own.

Name: VI-CO

Refers to: Chocolate milk

Details: The Vi-Co brand of chocolate milk was available in Saskatchewan and Manitoba in the early 20th century. (Vi-Co is short for “vitamins + cocoa.”) The last dairy to own the trademark, Dairy Producers, was bought out in 1995 by rival Dairyland, which discontinued the Vi-Co brand. Even though you can’t get actual Vi-Co anywhere anymore, many Saskatchewanians still call any kind of packaged chocolate milk “Vi-Co” or “vico.”

Name: Kraft Dinner

Refers to: Macaroni and cheese

Details: It’s kind of a stereotype now, but Canadians are known for their love of Kraft’s blue-boxed Macaroni and Cheese Dinner, or, as it’s called, Kraft Dinner. (Worldwide, Canadians purchase a quarter of all the Kraft Dinners sold.) Kraft isn’t the only company that packages dry noodles with cheesy sauce, but competitive brands are still more likely to be referred to as “Kraft Dinner: than “macaroni and cheese.”

Name: Javex

Refers to: Bleach

Details: Clorox is a genericized trademark in the United States referring to any bottle of simple bleach, whether or not it’s actually Clorox. The same phenomenon occurred in Canada, with Javex. Canada has a strong French influence, and bleach was invented in Javel, a Parisian neighborhood, in the late 1700s. It was first called eau de Javel (Javel water), and as Javel gave way to Javex in the early 1900s, it became one of the first bleach brands available in Canada. Javex doesn’t exist anymore–the Clorox Corporation bought Javex in 2006 and phased out the name. Canadians now buy Clorox…but they still call it Javex.

Name: Gravol

Refers to: Anti-motion sickness drugs

Details: If you’re feeling seasick or carsick, what remedy do you buy at the pharmacy? Motion sickness pills or Dramamine? In the United States, you’d probably ask for Dramamine. In Canada, the equivalent of Dramamine (and the best known brand name of this kind of drug) is Gravol. Both drugs contain the same active ingredient, dimenhydrinate.

Name: Timbits

Refers to: Doughnut holes

Details: The most popular fast-food restaurant in Canada–by far–is Tim Hortons. It’s a coffee-anddoughnut chain founded by ex-professional hockey player Tim Horton in 1964. There are 3,000 locations in Canada, or one for every 12,000 people (by contrast, in the U.S. there’s one McDonald’s for every 260,000 people). That total market saturation has affected the language. The bite-sized treat made from leftover dough in the doughnutmaking process is known at Tom Horton’s as a “timbit.” Dunkin’ Donut locations in Canada serve doughnut hole (called “munchkins”)…but lots of people still order them as “timbits.”

Name: Mackinaw

Refers to: A heavy redand-black-plaid jacket.

Details: One Canadian stereotype is the image of a manly lumberjack wearing a thick doublebreasted plaid jacket. Lumberjacks did indeed wear them, called mackinaws and produced from tightly woven wool Melton cloth. Today, several companies make them, and they’re all called mackinaws (or sometimes Meltons). But the first mackinaws were sewn by Metis women who lived near the Straits of Mackinac, near present-day Michigan. How did Mackinac become the Mackinaw? That’s how the word is pronounced in Canadian French so that’s how English speakers wrote it down.
