- Intervention effect No-till gave a 31% wheat yield advantage over conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect No-till gave a 16% wheat yield advantage over reduced tillage.
- Intervention effect Reduced tillage gave a 12% wheat yield advantage over conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect No-till gave a 120% sorghum yield advantage over conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect No-till gave a 41% sorghum yield advantage over reduced tillage.
- Intervention effect Reduced tillage gave a 55% sorghum yield advantage over conventional tillage.
- Association Wheat yield declined over time, which the authors attribute to increased seasonal temperature.
- Association Available soil water at planting was less under conventional tillage than under no-till and reduced tillage for both crops.
- Association No-till, reduced and conventional tillage ranked NT > RT > CT for yield and water productivity benefit in both crops, greater for sorghum than wheat.
