- Intervention effect Zero tillage was superior for days to maturity, canopy height, IPAR and leaf area index.
- Association Days to physiological maturity was positively associated across tillage systems, with correlation ≤ 40%.
- Association Canopy height was positively associated across tillage systems, with correlation ≥50%.
- Association Flat tillage showed a positive but nonsignificant correlation with IPAR and LAI.
- Association Ridge tillage had a positive significant correlation with IPAR and LAI.
- Association All tillage systems correlated positively with cowpea dry matter and fodder yield.
- Intervention effect Zero and ridge tillage had similar effects on grain yield.
- Association Cowpea variety by tillage interactions were significant except for IPAR, LAI and total dry matter.
