The moldboard plow treatment had uniform N mineralization (N) potential 0-15 cm; chisel and no-till had higher N 0-5 cm depth and lower N at 5-10 cm and 10-15 cm depth. All treatments had higher N in the fall than in the spring, but there were no significant differences between tillage methods. Chisel plowing and no-till had significantly higher N than moldboard plowing in the spring sampling.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightConservation agricultureSoil nutrientsGreen manure cropsSoilConservation tillageFertilizationNo-tillMoldboard plowChisel plowCrop rotationsField ScaleAbstractCopyright 1983 Soil Science Society of America
