Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Ploughing gave the highest maize yield (6.99 t/ha).
- Intervention effect Chisel tillage gave a lower maize yield (6.62 t/ha) than ploughing.
- Intervention effect Disc harrowing gave a lower maize yield (6.27 t/ha) than ploughing.
- Intervention effect No-till gave a lower maize yield (6.11 t/ha) than ploughing.
- Intervention effect Herbicide application reduced weed density in maize by 58–91%.
- Intervention effect Minimal and zero tillage increased the accumulation of crop residues in the upper soil layer by up to 97%.
- Intervention effect Minimal and zero tillage slowed maize crop emergence, with residues influencing the thermal regime.
- Recommendation Ploughing is recommended as the optimal primary tillage method for maize in the region.
- Intervention effect Minimal and zero tillage reduced seedling emergence and yield of maize.
- Intervention effect Minimal and zero tillage positively affected erosion resistance of the soil under maize.
