The Arkansas Rice Performance Trials (ARPTs) are conducted each year to evaluate promising experimental lines from the Arkansas rice breeding program and commercially available cultivars from public and private breeding programs. The ARPTs are planted on experiment stations and cooperating producer's fields in a diverse range of environments, soil types, and agronomic and pest conditions. The ARPTs were conducted at five locations during 2017. Averaged across locations, grain yields were highest for the commercial cultivars XP753, XP760, RT7812CL, RTGemini214CL, RT7311CL, Diamond, and Jupiter. Two advanced experimental lines, AREX7-1084 and AREX7-1124 also outperformed many current commercial cultivars. Cultivars with the highest overall milling yields during 2017 included: CL153, CL163, CL172, and Roy J. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
