Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect No-till increased maize chlorophyll value in the early growth period by 31.8% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect Strip-till increased maize chlorophyll value in the early growth period by 24.6% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect No-till increased maize plant height by 20.2% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect Strip-till increased maize plant height by 15.9% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect NT and ST treatments had a positive effect on maize root growth and development, plant height and chlorophyll content compared with MT.
- Observation Soil compaction followed the order MT > NT > ST.
- Observation Soil compaction at 20 cm was maximal under MT, at 1007 kPa.
- Intervention effect No-till significantly increased maize dry weight of plants by 24.3% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect Strip-till significantly increased maize dry weight of plants by 15.7% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect No-till significantly increased maize grain yield by 11.9% compared with MT.
- Intervention effect Strip-till significantly increased maize grain yield by 14.9% compared with MT.
- Recommendation NT and ST tillage are effective measures to improve soil structure and increase maize yield.
