- Method / resource Operating the 15-row seeder required 8.4 hp on average.
- Observation Tractor and seeder movement caused under 2% cotton boll loss.
- Intervention effect ZTDD detached about 29% fewer cotton bolls than STR and ZTT.
- Intervention effect STR relay seeding increased wheat germination count by 23% against ZTT.
