Microbial diversity in an Oxisol under no-tillage and conventional tillage in southern Brazil [PDF]
The no-tillage (NT) system of soil management is recognized as more sustainable than conventional tillage (CT), with an important role played by soil microorganisms. The objective of this study was to estimate differences in soil microbial diversity under NT and CT at different soil depths.

Weed Control Using Conventional Tillage, Reduced Tillage, No-Tillage, and Cover Crops in Organic Soybean [PDF]
Soybean field experiments were performed to investigate the weed-suppressing effects of different tillage systems and cover crop mulches at two locations in southwest Germany during 2014 and 2015. The influence of three different tillage systems on weed control efficacy, soybean plant density, and crop yield was determined.

Abstract Ridge tillage can be considered as an alternative to no-tillage in climates and environments which are not very favourable for the latter. It has been conceived almost exclusively for crops such as maize and soybean and this creates difficulties if small grains are introduced into a rotation based on the ridge tillage system.
