Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Grain and stover yield and harvest index were not significantly affected by tillage.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen rate and split frequency increased thousand grain weight, kernel rows and kernels per ear.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen rate and split frequency increased grain yield, stover yield and harvest index.
- Intervention effect 180 kg N ha-1 produced significantly higher grain yield of 8.91 t ha-1 than 120 or 60 kg N ha-1.
- Intervention effect Four equal nitrogen splits yielded 7.68 t ha-1, significantly higher than two splits.
- Recommendation The authors recommend either tillage system with 180 N kg ha-1 in four splits to increase yield attributes.
