Solid grey boxes indicate that farmers manage these operations, while thick grey hatched boxes indicate that farmers sometimes manage these operations. Boxes surrounded by a dotted line represent operations performed together. For stubble cultivation, the number in parentheses is the number of tractor passages (if >1). For nitrogen fertilisation, the number is the nitrogen application rate in kg N ha^-1 (if mentioned).
