I added some historic oat varieties to the test plot today. Wisconsin Wonder, aka Wisconsin Pedigree No. 1, was released in 1900 by the University. I hope to grow this out and see how it tastes.
Wisconsin No 5 was selected from a variety called Swedish Select. The University began its work on this oat variety in 1898.

| Both oat plots are three rows only. The Eastern one is Wisconsin Wonder, and the Western one is Pedigree No. 5. They are sandwiched between the remaining spring wheat tests, the winter wheat test plot, and two rows of vegetables. |
