Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Organic system corn had unacceptable weed competition, especially in dry years.
- Observation Crownvetch living mulch caused unacceptable competition with corn.
- Intervention effect Organic system corn yield was 28% lower than standard no-tillage.
- Intervention effect Crownvetch living mulch corn yield was 12% lower than standard no-tillage.
- Observation Organic system soils had higher combustible carbon and nitrogen than all other systems through 30 cm.
- Intervention effect Subsequent corn yield was 18% higher on plots with organic history than standard no-tillage history.
- Intervention effect Subsequent corn yield was 19% higher on plots with crownvetch history than standard no-tillage history.
- Intervention effect Corn yield did not differ between plots with standard and cover-crop no-tillage histories.
- Observation Three nitrogen availability tests indicated more nitrogen available to corn in organic and crownvetch systems than standard no-tillage.
