Abstract
Tillage and crop rotation systems have significant long-term effects on soil quality and health components of carbon and other physical, biological, and chemical properties of soil. Additionally, tillage and crop rotations control weed and soilborne diseases. There is need for a well-defined, long-term tillage and crop rotation study across the different soils and climate conditions in the state. The objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term effects of five tillage systems and three crop rotations on soil quality and corn and soybean yields.
