Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Tillage and residue levels had no significant effect on maize yield and yield traits or rapeseed seed yield in the first year.
- Intervention effect Herbicide use affected maize cob diameter, cob length, test weight and grain yield compared with manual weeding in both years.
- Observation Conventional tillage with residue removed had a benefit-cost ratio of 1.7 in the second year.
- Observation No tillage with residue kept had a benefit-cost ratio of 2.5 in the second year.
- Observation Conservation practices significantly reduced production cost without severe yield penalties.
