Tillage intensity reductions when combined with yield increases may slow soil carbon saturation in the central United States.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tillage intensity reduction when coupled with higher yields and better equipment, has increased the potential to sequester carbon in farm fields. However, a few experiments have demonstrated that this is occurring. This studies objective was to investigate the macro-scale effects of crop tillage intensity decreases and yield increases and on soil organic carbon (SOC) storage in Nebraska (NE), Iowa (IA), Minnesota (MN), and South Dakota (SD) from 2000 to 2021. The analysis was based on grower surveys, state yields from 2000 to 2021, and over 12 million surface soil samples that were aggregated by state and year. The model used first order kinetics, and it consisted of three pools [non-harvested carbon (NHC), SOC, and atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO
