Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Zero tillage saved 20% input energy in maize relative to conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect Zero tillage saved 15% input energy in wheat relative to conventional tillage.
- Observation CTCT had the maximum input energy requirement in the maize–wheat system.
- Observation ZTZT had the minimum input energy requirement in the maize–wheat system.
- Intervention effect Sequential tillage did not significantly alter gross and net output energy production.
- Intervention effect ZTZT had significantly maximum energy-use efficiency, exceeding CTCT by 29.76%.
- Intervention effect ZTZT energy-use efficiency exceeded CTZT by 19.44%.
- Intervention effect ZTZT energy-use efficiency exceeded ZTCT by 11.49%.
- Intervention effect Increasing N from 0 to 120 kg N/ha significantly increased input and output energy and IWUE.
- Intervention effect Increasing N from 0 to 180 kg N/ha significantly decreased energy-use efficiency and NUE.
- Recommendation The authors recommend zero tillage with 120 kg N/ha to enhance resource-use efficiency.
