The present data is from a long-term trial set at Msekera Research Station in Zambia to monitor and evaluate the long-term effects of conservation agriculture practices on soil quality, soil water dynamics, weeds, pests/diseases, and crop yield. This trial was conducted from 2012 to 2020. The ten treatments including control were:</p> <ol>T1: Control plot 1 (CPM1): traditional farmers practice mouldboard plough on the flat, maize as a sole crop, no residue retention, stubble incorporated into the row for the following season.</ol> <ol> T2: Control plot 2 (CPM2); ridge and furrow system dug by hand, maize as a sole crop, no residue retention, stubble incorporated into the row for the following season</ol> <ol> T3: Basins (BAM), residue retention on the surface, maize as a sole crop </ol><ol>T4: Dibble stick (DISM), residue retention on the surface, maize as a sole crop</ol><ol> T5: Direct seeder (DSM), residue retention on the surface, maize as a sole crop</ol><ol> T6: Direct seeding maize/cowpea intercropping (DS-M/C), 90cm rows, residue retention on the surface</ol><ol> T7: Direct seeding cowpea (Cowpea-maize rotation) (DS-MC), residue retention on the surface</ol><ol> T8:Direct seeding maize (Maize-cowpea rotation) (DS-CM), residue retention on the surface</ol> <ol>T9:Direct seeding soya (Soybean-maize rotation) (DS-MS), residue retention on the surface</ol><ol> T10: Direct seeding maize (Maize-soybean rotation) (DS-SM), residue retention on the surface</ol>
