Performance of Tillage Implements in a Stubble Mulch System: III. Effects of Tillage Sequences on Residues, Soil Cloddiness, Weed Control, and Wheat Yield1

C. R. Fenster2, N. P. Woodruff3, W. S. Chepil3 and F. H. Siddoway3

Synopsis: The amount and height of crop residue influenced the effectiveness of tillage sequences to conserve residue on the soil surface. Tillage sequences produced no noticeable effect on soil cloddiness at the end of season. Better weed control was obtained with tillage sequences including one one-way disking. Tillage sequences seem to influence wheat yields more in dry years than wet years.
