- Intervention effect Trash and vegetative mulch systems produced up to 43% lower capsicum yields than plastic mulch systems.
- Intervention effect Trash and vegetative mulch systems produced up to 43% lower zucchini yields than plastic mulch systems.
- Mechanism Factors other than nutrition, such as soil temperature, were likely driving the yield differences.
