Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Corn population did not interact with tillage or rotation for yield.
- Intervention effect Tillage did not affect corn yield across years.
- Intervention effect Annual corn–soybean rotation yielded 12% more corn than continuous corn.
- Intervention effect Increasing corn population from 56300 to 75200 plants per hectare increased yield 11%.
- Observation Soybean population did not interact with tillage or rotation for yield.
- Intervention effect Conventional tillage produced 8% higher soybean yield than no tillage.
- Intervention effect First-year soybean after five consecutive corn years yielded 8% more than other rotations.
- Intervention effect Studied plant populations did not affect soybean yield.
- Recommendation Cropping history was not important in determining optimum corn or soybean population.
- Recommendation Tillage system was not important in determining optimum corn or soybean population.
