Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Zone tillage depth did not affect early corn growth, silage yield, or quality.
- Observation Corn stalk nitrate exceeded 2,000 mg NO 3 –N kg –1 in each zone tillage treatment, indicating sufficient nitrogen.
- Intervention effect Tillage intensity had no impact on corn growth, yield, or nutritive value.
- Recommendation On previously manured reduced tillage fields, the authors recommend manure injection followed by direct planting to maintain yield and quality while conserving nitrogen and reducing operations.
