Other claims from this paper (18)
- Observation Tillage layers affected soil physical properties.
- Intervention effect MJ improved soil structure and increased soil water content.
- Association Soil nutrients varied significantly with soil depth except available potassium.
- Association Soil nutrients differed by tillage structure and depth.
- Association MJ gave a different depth response in soil nutrients.
- Association Soil organic matter varied with depth and tillage, except at 20–30 cm.
- Intervention effect MJ increased soil organic matter by 10–20% against other structures.
- Association Root morphology varied with year, depth and tillage structure.
- Intervention effect MJ enhanced root growth against other tillage layers.
- Intervention effect MJ significantly increased root length and root volume.
- Observation Root physiological properties did not differ significantly among treatments.
- Association Root dry weight declined with soil depth.
- Observation Most roots were at 0–40 cm depth.
- Intervention effect MJ enhanced root dry weight versus other treatments.
- Association Differences in root dry weight among tillage layers narrowed with depth.
- Intervention effect MJ significantly improved maize yield, by 14.2% against other structures.
- Association Correlations between yield and root and soil traits differed.
- Recommendation The authors identify MJ as the best structure for maize yield.
