- Intervention effect All soil sterilants except mercury decreased take-all incidence in the year they were applied.
- Intervention effect All soil sterilants except mercury increased crop yields in the year they were applied.
- Intervention effect Dazomet gave the best control of Heterodera avenae in the first year.
- Intervention effect Dazomet controlled Ophiobolus graminis best in both years of application.
- Intervention effect In the third year, Ophiobolus graminis increased in all plots previously treated, except after two successive D-D treatments.

- Intervention effect Two formalin applications depressed barley yield.
- Intervention effect Two successive applications of chloropicrin gave the best nematode control.
- Intervention effect Two applications of dazomet gave the largest aggregate straw yield over three years.
- Intervention effect The best yields after treatment in the first year only were given by D-D and methyl bromide.
