Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Fall plowing produced the lowest pea yields in four of six crop years.
- Intervention effect No till produced the lowest wheat yields in dry and hot crop years.
- Intervention effect No till and disk tillage or chisel plowing lowered surface soil pH relative to fall and spring plowing.
- Intervention effect No till and disk tillage or chisel plowing raised surface soil organic carbon and total nitrogen relative to fall and spring plowing.
- Intervention effect Spring plowing increased soil organic carbon and total nitrogen over no till at 10 to 20 cm depth.
- Intervention effect No till and disk tillage or chisel plowing increased pea yields relative to fall plowing.
- Recommendation Spring plowing may minimize surface acidification, increase crop yield, and maintain soil carbon and nitrogen.
