Table 3 Multiple comparisons of mean differences of runoff (R), runoff coefficient (RC), and soil loss (SL) between the three treatments

From: Runoff and soil loss responses of cultivated land managed with graded soil bunds of different ages in the Upper Blue Nile basin, Ethiopia

Treatments (I)	Treatments (J)	Mean difference (I − J)
Treatments (I)	Treatments (J)	R (mm)	RC (%)	SL (t ha⁻¹)
New soil bund (P_new)	Old soil bund (P_old)	− 2.17	− 11.23^a	− 0.29
New soil bund (P_new)	Non-treated (P_non)	− 3.39^b	− 17.19^a	− 0.46^b
Old soil bund (P_old)	New soil bund (P_new)	2.17	11.23^a	0.29
Old soil bund (P_old)	Non-treated (P_non)	− 1.22	− 5.96^b	− 0.16
Non-treated (P_non)	New soil bund (P_new)	3.39^b	17.19^a	0.46^b
Non-treated (P_non)	Old soil bund (P_old)	1.22	5.96^b	0.16

“^a” and “^b” indicate the mean difference is significant at 0.001 and 0.05, respectively
