Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Subsoil compaction significantly decreased root mass density in the subsurface layer.
- Intervention effect Subsoil compaction did not affect root mass density above the compacted zone.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer increased root mass density in compacted soil.
- Association Root density differences from compaction were not reflected in wheat yield.
- Intervention effect Grain yield was the same or higher under subsoil compaction.
- Intervention effect Straw yield was the same or higher under subsoil compaction.
- Recommendation With precise water and nutrient supply, subsoil layers were judged not to constrain wheat production.
