Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Grain yield variation was more closely related to dry matter at maturity and harvest index than to dry matter production at tillering and anthesis.
- Association Soil properties had a stronger relationship with dry matter production and grain yield in 1999, the drier year.
- Association Colwell phosphorus in the topsoil was positively correlated with dry matter production at tillering.
- Association Colwell phosphorus in the topsoil was not related to dry matter production at anthesis or to grain yield.
- Association The importance of EC and extractable boron for grain yield variation increased with soil depth.
- Association EC had a greater influence on grain yield variation than the other soil properties.
- Association In a year with above-average rainfall, measured soil variables described very little of the yield variation.
- Association Variability in plant nutrient concentration, plant growth and grain yield was high but lower than that of most soil properties.
- Observation All soil properties except pH showed a high degree of spatial variability.
