- Intervention effect At 4 weeks after planting, soybean on ploughed land had the highest Fusarium blight severity (1.9).
- Intervention effect At 4 weeks after planting, no tillage had the least Fusarium blight severity (0.8).
- Intervention effect Soybean sown under no tillage had a significantly higher seed yield (328.0 kg/ha) than all other treatments.
- Intervention effect No tillage was the most effective approach for reducing the severity of soybean Fusarium blight in infected soil.
- Mechanism Tillage is proposed to manage soybean diseases through its potential to adjust soil temperature and moisture.
