Other claims from this paper (2)
- Method / resource Calculated yield components gave no better estimates of grain yield than soil-moisture variables obtained directly.
- Observation Calculated yield components gave better insight into relationships between soil moisture, other climatic variables and grain yields at eight Canadian stations.
