- Intervention effect Market-driven rotation increased protein-based yield by 2%–6% versus Control.
- Intervention effect Diversified rotation increased protein-based yield by 2%–6% versus Control.
- Intervention effect Soil-health rotation yielded 23%–26% less than Control.
- Intervention effect High-risk rotation yielded 23%–26% less than Control.
- Association All rotations trended upward in protein-based yield over time.
- Intervention effect Diversified rotations increased protein-based yield 13%–28% faster than Market-driven and Intensified rotations.
- Association Precipitation explained 25% of yield variation.
- Association Nitrogen management explained 21% of yield variation.
- Intervention effect Increasing pulse frequency mitigated protein-based yield loss by 10%–24% in low rainfall seasons.
- Intervention effect Increasing rotation complexity mitigated protein-based yield loss by 10%–24% in low rainfall seasons.
- Recommendation The authors recommend integrating pulse crops to enhance nitrogen management and reduce yield loss in low precipitation regions.
