- Intervention effect No-till improved long-term crop productivity of sloping soil compared with moldboard plow.
- Intervention effect Chisel plow improved long-term crop productivity of sloping soil compared with moldboard plow.
- Intervention effect No-till crop yield improved relative to moldboard plow each year, with differences statistically significant in the last two crop years.
- Intervention effect No-till had the highest crop yield in the fourth, fifth and sixth years.
- Intervention effect The no-till system provided the highest net income over the six-year study, and moldboard plow the lowest.
- Intervention effect Net income with no-till was $40/acre per year higher than with moldboard plow.
- Intervention effect Net income with chisel plow was $8/acre per year higher than with moldboard plow, from lower machinery costs.
- Intervention effect No-till reduced soil loss from erosion to below the current and future soil loss standards.
- Intervention effect No-till machinery requirements and costs were lower than with the two other tillage systems.
- Intervention effect Moldboard plow had the highest corn yield in 1989.
- Intervention effect In 1989, corn grain yield under no-till was significantly lower than under moldboard plow or chisel plow.
