- Intervention effect Shelter plus irrigation lowered specific leaf weight versus irrigation alone.
- Intervention effect Shelter plus irrigation increased tillers and plant height versus irrigation alone.
- Intervention effect Dryland shelter did not increase wheat vegetative growth except early plant height.
- Intervention effect With irrigation, shelter increased wheat yield by 6.4 q/ha or 21.8%.
- Intervention effect Dryland shelter reduced wheat yield by 3.8 q/ha or 19.4%.
- Association Heads and straw production responded like grain yield across shelter and water treatments.
