- Observation Without irrigation, conventionally tilled soybean yielded 1,728 kg/ha.
- Observation Conventional tillage with irrigation begun 23 June yielded 2,063 kg/ha.
- Observation Conventional tillage with irrigation begun 29 July yielded 2,124 kg/ha.
- Observation Conventional tillage with irrigation begun 29 September yielded 1,686 kg/ha.
- Intervention effect Irrigation did not significantly change yields in subsoiled plots.
- Mechanism Authors infer benefits of subsoiling and bedding beyond water availability.
