The objective of this study was to compare crops yield (corn, soybean, wheat) and environmental impact (soil health and C storage) of 20 different combinations of management practices including tillage regime (minimum tillage, mouldboard plowing), crop residue management (harvested or returned to soil) and five different fertilizer sources (organic and mineral) on two soils with contrasting textures (sandy loam and silty clay) over a nine-year period in eastern Canada. After six years, yields were 8-30% higher under reduced tillage in the silty clay, but not in the sandy loam soil. Similar wheat grain yields were obtained with the mineral fertilizer and farmyard manures and manures even had a positive legacy effect on soybean yield in sandy...
