No-Till Farming Systems for Sustaining Soil Health
2020Agriculture in the next decades will have to produce more food on less land and purchased production inputs by making more efficient use of natural and applied resources. The practice of no-tillage (NT) is briefly described and its effect on physical, chemical, and biological properties and processes and how these led the transition from NT only to ...

No-till Farming Systems for Sustainable Agriculture: An Overview
2020No-till (NT) farming systems have revolutionized agriculture by improving erosion control, soil water storage, soil quality and, in many instances, yield and net farm income. The adoption of NT systems has increased at an exponential rate since the 1990s and they are now used on 12.5% of global croplands.

Enhancing Soil Aggregation in No-Till Farming Systems
2020Improving soil physical properties, such as aggregate stability, is essential to reducing soil erodibility, stabilizing C and nutrients, improving water, air, and heat fluxes, and supporting root growth. No-till (NT) farming generally improves soil aggregate stability near the soil surface, but the extent of this improvement can depend on the companion

Strategic Tillage for the Improvement of No-Till Farming Systems
2020Farming with no or zero tillage (NT) is a valuable practice in many agro-ecosystems, but problems may develop that can be solved, or NT may otherwise be improved, by occasional strategic tillage (ST). The practice of ST has been evaluated in numerous studies.

Managing Cover Crops in No-Till Farming Systems
2020Cover crops have long been used in agricultural production systems as a result of providing varying agronomic and environmental benefits. Although no-till (NT) is a leading approach to sustain crop production, reduce soil degradation, mitigate environmental concerns, and enhance ecosystem services, implementing cover crops can further enhance NT ...

No-Till Rice-Wheat Farming: The Arkansas Experience
2004Rice cultivation first appeared in the continental United States in the mid-17th century (Dethloff, 2003, in press). The first cultivated rice variety, Carolina gold, is reported to have arrived in South Carolina from Madagascar (Littlefield, 1981). Westward expansion in the United States along with the Civil War resulted in rice production shifting ...
