- Intervention effect Subsoiling before cotton gave maximum cotton yield with similar row spacing.
- Intervention effect Subsoiling before cotton did not decrease corn yield the following year.
- Intervention effect Controlled traffic with 36 in. uniform rows produced maximum yields of both crops.
- Intervention effect Controlled traffic with uniform 36 in. rows decreased energy use associated with less annual subsoiling.
