TL;DR: A replicated, long-term field drainage experiment on a clay soil was started in 1978 to investigate the effects of mole drainage on land that had been direct-drilled or ploughed, and the results for the first 2 years were summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors influencing the variation of some properties of soils in relation to their suitability for direct drilling
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared direct drilling with moldboard ploughing with respect to their composition and physical properties, and derived an index of compactability from an established relationship.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of the root and shoot growth of winter barley and winter wheat, and the effect of an early application of chlormequat
TL;DR: The chlormequat treatment significantly shortened stem length, but did not significantly affect the number of shoots, crop dry weight or grain yield of either species.
