摘要
A single season and non-replicated comparison of conventional and no-tillage was evaluated by measuring sweet corn (Zea mays L.) crop yield and soil properties on a wind erosion prone soil in Hawke's Bay. Tillage treatment did not affect plant population or crop yield. By harvest, indicators of soil quality such as earthworm numbers, microbial biomass carbon, soil aggregate size and soil aggregrate stability were higher under no-tillage than conventional tillage.
