Stubble Height Effect on Winter Wheat in the Northern Great Plains: II. Plant Population and Yield Relations

(...) The objective was to develop algorithms relating postwinter agronomic characters to potential grain yield. Field trials were conducted 4 yr on Williams loam (fine-loamy, mixed Typic Argiborolls) to measure the effect of four stubble heights (0, 5, 20, and 36 cm) on postwinter plant populations and agronomic characteristics of three cultivars (Roughrider, Mironovskaya, and Centurk).
