e0“moisture was used inefficiently for crop production and lost by excessive evaporation”
e1“At the same time, there were indications that disking resulted in a seedbed more difficult to penetrate with the penetrometer and also one from which moisture was used inefficiently for crop production and lost by excessive evaporation regardless of the presence of a residue mulch.”

- Intervention effect Improved stubble-mulch plowing performed as satisfactorily as turn plowing in the last year.
- Intervention effect Improved stubble-mulch plowing made a seedbed as loose as turn plowing.
- Intervention effect Improved stubble-mulch plowing conserved moisture via crop residues.
- Intervention effect Disking appeared to produce a seedbed harder to penetrate.
