From: Minimal tillage and intermittent flooding farming systems show a potential reduction in the proliferation of Anopheles mosquito larvae in a rice field in Malanville, Northern Benin

NB, The numbers sharing the same letter are not significantly different. Comparison was made between deep tillage and minimal tillage, continuous flooding and intermittent flooding, normal levelling and abnormal levelling effect on reduction of anopheles larval density
