Tillage Superior to No-Till for Establishing Hybrid Poplar Plantations

In this study on the effects of till and no-till on early survival and growth of hybrid poplar, till was always superior to no-till regardless of site, clone, or planting material. Over the three sites, tillage produced the greatest tree growth on the loam soil, the wettest and most fertile of the sites. In contrast, no-till showed its best performance on the dryer (and therefore probably warmer) sandy loam site. (Tree Planters' Notes 37(1):6-10; 1986)
