Fig. 1. Comparison of cumulative probability density functions of no-till and stale seedbed preparation methods using net returns above total specified cost (NRAT) across all maturity groups (MGs) for each planting method at Rohwer, AR, 19921994. Cumulative probability density functions were plotted using the fractile method espoused by Schlaifer (1959).

Fig. 2. Comparison of cumulative probability density functions of net returns above total specified costs (NRAT) for maturity group (MG) IV, V, and VI for (A) stale and (B) no-till seedbed preparation methods at Keiser, AR, 19901997. Cumulative probability density functions were plotted using the fractile method espoused by Schlaifer (1959).
