Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Cuphea seed yield was unaffected by previous crop.
- Intervention effect Yields of corn, soybean and wheat were unaffected by prior cuphea.
- Intervention effect Wheat stand was 17% greater after cuphea than after corn or soybean.
- Intervention effect Wheat grain crude protein was 8% greater after cuphea than after corn or soybean.
- Intervention effect Cuphea slightly lowered soybean stands without reducing soybean yield.
- Observation Cuphea production cost averaged $172 ha −1 less than corn.
- Observation Cuphea production cost averaged $126 ha −1 more than wheat.
- Observation Cuphea was not profitable below $1830 Mg −1.
- Intervention effect Net returns for corn following cuphea were comparable to other rotations and greater than continuous cropping.
- Recommendation Cuphea fits rotations with corn, soybean or wheat and may best follow soybean and precede wheat or corn.
