Through the collection and compilation of this minimum data set on farm trials, the researchers were able to discern a significant positive difference in soil quality from conservation agriculture to conventional agriculture practices.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightSoil conservationConservation agricultureSoil fertilityConservation tillageSoil qualityZero tillageCrop rotationsResidue managementTriticum aestivumZea mays l.MaizeWheatCentral Mexico highlandsSoil qualityField ScaleAbstractCopyright 2005 Elsevier B.V.
