Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Wheat yield was higher following soybean (3.39 Mg/ha) than following grain sorghum (2.90 Mg/ha).
- Association Tillage effects on grain yield were smaller than the effects of other treatment factors.
- Intervention effect Grain yields were greatest in all cropping systems with the high-N-rate subsurface-knife treatment.
- Mechanism Grain yield differences were primarily related to greater immobilization of fertilizer and soil N following grain sorghum than soybean.
- Intervention effect Utilization of subsurface-knifed N was better than that of surface-broadcast N.
- Association Wheat yield potential is more strongly influenced by previous crop, fertilizer N rate and N placement method than by tillage system.
