Effects of No-Tillage and Conventional Tillage on Physical and Hydraulic Properties of Fine Textured Soils under Winter Wheat

Water, 2019
The conversion from conventional tillage (CT) to no-tillage (NT) of the soil is often suggested for positive long-term effects on several physical and hydraulic soil properties.

Effects of Different Tillage and Residue Retention Measures on Silage Maize Yield and Quality and Soil Phosphorus in Karst Areas

Agronomy, 2023
Soil phosphorus (P) limitation in karst areas has severely constrained soil quality and land productivity. To enhance silage maize yield and quality and alleviate and/or balance the low phosphorus availability in the karst areas of China, the experiment ...

Changes in soil organic carbon fractions and residence time five years after implementing conventional and conservation tillage practices

Soil & Tillage Research, 2020
Tillage not only affects the quantity of soil organic carbon, SOC, but also its quality. Therefore, an investigation was conducted to see how a five-year (2011–2016) implementation of conventional tillage, CT, and conservation tillage practices, CTP’s ...

Cover crops as a tool to reduce reliance on intensive tillage and nitrogen fertilization in conventional arable cropping systems

Field crops research (Print), 2020
Cover crops are often recommended as a valuable practice to develop more sustainable cropping systems but, despite many benefits, their adoption in practice is still limited mainly because the effects on productivity and economic return are variable ...

Aggregate stability and soil surface sealing in irrigated soils under no‐tillage versus conventional tillage

Land Degradation & Development, 2022
AbstractThe effect of no‐tillage (NT) (zero tillage) versus conventional tillage (CT) has been evaluated in rainfed conditions but has seldom been studied under irrigation, where soil sealing favours soil degradation. To contribute to this knowledge, this research analyses soil aggregate stability under disaggregation forces produced under irrigation ...
