Fig. 1. A crop x crop residue matrix used to evaluate the influences of crop sequence on crop production. During the first year, 10 crops (numbered 1 through 10) were no-till seeded into a uniform crop residue. During the second year, the same 10 crops were no-till seeded perpendicular over the residue of the previous year's crops. Individual plot numbers are assigned for each experimental unit in the replication.
