Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Early winter sowing substantially increased chickpea yield relative to spring or late winter sowing.
- Intervention effect Rhizobium inoculation had small, inconsistent effects on chickpea.
- Intervention effect Chemical weed control significantly increased grain yield against the unweeded control in winter-sown chickpea.
- Intervention effect Chemical weed control was less effective than hand weeding.
- Intervention effect Phosphate application significantly increased chickpea yield by 10% overall in the first three seasons.
- Intervention effect Drilling chickpea seed increased yield by 10% overall versus broadcast sowing.
- Observation The proposed practices singly or combined posed no economic or environmental risk to farmers.
- Intervention effect Combined early winter sowing, drilling, weeding and appropriate phosphate gave the greatest yield gains.
