Try something like:
> nr.carbon.2 <- tapply(carbon, list(tillage, site), mean)
> nr.carbon.2
2 3 4 5 6
-1 14.61667 18.52667 27.83833 21.42167 20.085
1 17.08500 19.76000 32.87000 24.70833 24.120
> as.vector(nr.carbon.2[2:1,])
[1] 17.08500 14.61667 19.76000 18.52667 32.87000 27.83833 24.70833 21.42167
[9] 24.12000 20.08500
