Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Preparing the soil by disking reduced soybean germination and growth in a dry year when rain did not soon follow planting.
- Intervention effect Shredding the straw and leaving it on the soil surface adversely affected soybean germination in one year.
- Intervention effect No-till seeding of soybeans into burned stubble gave the highest and most consistent yields.
- Intervention effect Soybean yields after no-till seeding into burned stubble did not differ from burned straw followed by conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect Soybean yields after no-till seeding into burned stubble did not differ from shredded straw followed by no-till planting.
- Intervention effect The average soybean yield in the best double-crop practice was 29% lower than in monoculture soybeans.
- Intervention effect Wheat yields were not affected by the tillage-straw management practices.
- Intervention effect Excluding a failed year, most double-crop systems gave greater economic returns than monocrop soybeans.
- Intervention effect Burning the straw followed by no-till seeding and cultivation gave the greatest average net return among double-crop systems.
