- Intervention effect Modified reduced tillage raised maize grain yield to 2 199 kg/ha, 8.3% above conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect Modified reduced tillage raised maize grain yield 14.6% above reduced tillage RT I.
- Intervention effect Inorganic nitrogen gave significantly higher maize grain yield than compost or mixed nitrogen sources.
- Intervention effect Conventional tillage gave superior wheat yield of 2 525 kg/ha under rainfed conditions.
- Intervention effect RT II had a lower yield CV, 25.1%, than conventional tillage at 27.9%.
- Intervention effect RT II had a higher sustainable yield index, 0.61, than conventional tillage at 0.54.
- Intervention effect Entirely organic nitrogen resulted in significantly lower wheat yield of 2 248 kg/ha.
- Intervention effect Replacing half the organic nitrogen with inorganic nitrogen improved wheat yield by 10.9%.
- Intervention effect Replacing all organic nitrogen with inorganic nitrogen improved wheat yield by 10.7%.
