Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Soil compaction reduced barley yield by around 45% in 1984.
- Intervention effect Soil compaction reduced wheat yield by around 45% in 1984.
- Intervention effect Soil compaction reduced pea yield by around 45% in 1984.
- Intervention effect Soil compaction reduced triticale yield by 30%.
- Intervention effect Soil compaction reduced spring biomass of both pasture species by about 30%.
- Observation Differences in compaction response between species were not significant.
- Intervention effect Deep ripping increased dry matter at flowering of all species by about 30% in 1985.
- Observation Severe water stress prevented the dry matter gain in cereals from becoming a grain yield difference.
- Intervention effect Oat yield was significantly lower after deep ripping than on compacted soil.
- Intervention effect Deep ripping increased pea yield by 60%.
- Intervention effect Deep ripping increased lupin yield by 20%.
- Recommendation The authors recommend deep ripping before the cereal phase for maximum economic benefit.
- Recommendation The authors suggest rapidly growing, early flowering, quick maturing cultivars to maximize response and reduce poor grain filling.
