Abstract
Abstract Preplant tillage treatments influenced growth and yield of turnip greens (Brassica campestris L. Rapifera group). Yields in response to moldboard plow, subsoil-bed and subsoil-plant treatments were not significantly different on either Tifton sandy loam or Lakeland sand. Yields with the above tillage treatments were significantly greater than with disc treatments on Lakeland sand. However, on Tifton sandy loam, only moldboard plow treatment resulted in higher yields than with disc treatments. Plants with higher top fresh and dry weights were obtained with moldboard plow treatment on Tifton sandy loam but not on Lakeland sand. Disc treatment increased soil strength and decreased root length.
