Justification of technologies of minimum (surface) tillage
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 With the modern development of agricultural production, the introduction of resource-saving technologies, technologies based on intelligent systems, there is a need to introduce a system of machines for the implementation of surface tillage technologies (mini-till, no-till). The main factor largely determining the choice of an agricultural machine, its

Minimum Performance Standards of Tillage Implements
Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology, 2020 This article focuses on formulation of minimum performance standards (MPS) for tillage machinery such as rotavator, disc harrow and cultivator. The required minimum performance standard of different tillage machinery under sandy loam soil condition is discussed further in this paper and recommended in order to ensure availability of quality tillage ...
