Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Vetch and mixed cover crops produced about 90 kg/ha N, over four times rye.
- Observation Vetch dry weight yield was 2.7 mg/ha, about 60% of prior years because of winter kill.
- Intervention effect Ammonium nitrate after rye increased corn yield significantly.
- Intervention effect Ammonium nitrate after rye increased corn foliar N significantly.
- Intervention effect After vetch, tilled unfertilized corn yielded as much as fertilized corn.
- Intervention effect In no-till plots, unfertilized corn yield was significantly below fertilized yield.
- Intervention effect Tillage had no significant effect on sweet corn plant density.
- Intervention effect Tillage had no significant effect on sweet corn yields.
- Observation The authors concluded no-tillage sweet corn was successful.
- Observation Vetch fixed N sustained sweet corn production under tillage but not no-till.
