Tractor and implement energy inputs, crop yields and soil condition were monitored in 2 groups of replicated small plots and 2 large plots over 3 years. Barley was the major winter crop with summer crops of sorghum and soyabeans. The tractor was instrumented to measure fuel flow, drawbar pull, ground speed and wheel slip.
