Conservation tillage systems for annually cropped wheat in the Pacific Northwest
Material type: ArticleLanguage: En Publication details: 1987Subject(s): In: Journal of Soil and Water Conservation v. 42, no. 1, p. 53-55615275Summary: A four-year study was conducted at two historically wheat-fallow locations in Oregon to compare yields of annually cropped wheat in no-till, disk, and chisel tillage systems with yields of wheat following conventionally chiseled and rodweeded fallow. Tillage method did not affect yields of annually cropped wheat. A management strategy that reduces soil erosion risk and increases average annual production was developed. Annually cropped wheat, including two crops of lower yielding spring wheat, yielded 60% and 70% of winter wheat after fallow at the two locations. On a land use basis, annually cropped wheat, including the spring wheat crops, producedItem type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | |
