%X A field trial investigated the effect of improved soil structure on wheat yield. Krilium, a synthetic polyelectrolyte soil conditioner, was used to improve structure. The water stability of the soil aggregates was significantly increased on the plots treated with the conditioner. The conditioner treated plots also had significantly higher yields and 1000-grain weights than the untreated plots. The effect of the soil conditioner persisted into the year after cropping, when the plots were sown to Barrel Medic (Medicago tribuloides Desr.). The Barrel Medic establishment was significantly greater on the conditioner treated plots.
