Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Plots 2 b and 8 had slower yield decrements than plot 7.
- Intervention effect Potassium sulphate and substitutes influenced wheat yield.
- Observation All plots underwent similar slow changes in mean yield.
- Method / resource Long series of average wheat yields from different fields or seasons cannot match same-field same-season plot comparisons in accuracy.
- Method / resource Slow changes in mean yield make even long series of different years from one field inaccurate to compare.
- Method / resource Neighboring plot mean yields can be compared accurately within one field.
- Observation Changes in mean yield sensibly affect average comparisons for plots 17 and 18.
- Recommendation The authors advise comparing plots 17 and 18 with other plots during high yielding periods.
