Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect No-till with residue and reduced tillage with residue produced high soil cover.
- Intervention effect RT with residue covered 45–92% of soil surface.
- Intervention effect No-till with residue delayed emergence in 1992 and 1993 and partly suppressed it in 1994.
- Intervention effect CT with residue delayed emergence in 1992 and 1993.
- Observation Final plant populations differed only in 1994.
- Intervention effect With residue, no-till reduced grain, stover and total yields in 1992 and 1994.
- Intervention effect With residue, reduced tillage lowered grain, stover and total yields in 1992.
- Intervention effect With residue, reduced tillage lowered stover and total yields in 1993.
- Recommendation The authors consider no-till and reduced tillage viable for silage corn.
- Recommendation The authors advise attention to seeding technique under continuous grain corn with high residue.
