Analysis of the shallow root system of maize grown by plowing upland fields converted from paddy fields: effects of soil hardness and fertilization

The root system of maize tends to be shallower with plowing tillage than with rotary tilling in upland fields converted from paddy fields. Soil hardness and fertilizer distribution differ between plowing tillage and rotary tilling; thus, we investigated the maize root system at different growth stag...
