e0“Compared with zero tillage, the conventional tillage and raised seed-bed methods being statistically at par, resulted in significantly higher N, P and K uptake by maize crop (18.1, 25.0 and 20.2% by the former and 16.1, 36.2 and 16.7% respectively by the latter method) and lower depletion of these nutrients by weeds (13.5, 15.6 and 10.8% by the former and 30.3, 30.3 and 29.0%, respectively by the latter method), in- creasing the average grain yield of the crop by 16.9 and 13.7% by these methods”
