Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Tillage practices did not influence yield parameters of maize, wheat and chickpea.
- Intervention effect Zero tillage with mulch had relatively higher yield parameters than conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect Maize grain and stover yields did not differ significantly among tillage practices.
- Intervention effect Zero tillage with mulch gave higher organic carbon and soil microflora.
- Intervention effect Zero tillage with mulch increased available NPK and maize uptake compared with conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect Target yield of 10 t ha-1 significantly raised maize yield attributes compared with other treatments except 8 t ha-1 and 150% RDF.
- Intervention effect Target yield of 10 t ha-1 produced significantly higher maize grain yield of 69.9 q ha-1.
- Intervention effect Target yield of 10 t ha-1 produced significantly higher maize stover yield of 89.5 q ha-1.
- Intervention effect Farmers practice gave the lowest maize grain yield of 53.6 q ha-1.
- Intervention effect Farmers practice gave the lowest maize stover yield of 74.3 q ha-1.
- Intervention effect The 10 t ha-1 target gave significantly higher soil microflora, available NPK and maize uptake.
- Intervention effect The maize tillage by nutrient management interaction did not significantly affect grain or stover yield.
- Intervention effect Wheat and chickpea yield and yield parameters did not differ with tillage or maize target yield approach.
- Intervention effect Zero tillage and mulched zero tillage gave maximum net returns and higher BC ratio.
- Intervention effect The 10 t ha-1 target gave maximum net returns and higher BC ratio among nutrient management practices.
