Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Conventional tillage gave greater cucumber yields than strip tillage in one year.
- Intervention effect Cucumber NUE did not differ between tillage systems or N rates.
- Observation Cucumber NUE averaged 35%.
- Intervention effect In one of two years, belly rot incidence was greater under no till, caused by Rhizoctonia solani.
- Association Belly rot incidence increased with increasing N rate.
- Intervention effect In the other year, tillage had no effect on belly rot.
- Recommendation Conventional tillage is recommended for cucumbers because it outperforms strip tillage and no till in most years.
