Revolutionising Agricultural Sustainability: New 'Furrow Tillage' can Mitigate Short-Term Soil-to-Atmosphere CO<sub>2</sub> Flux and Promote Soil-Plant-Microbe Health. [PDF]
Furrow tillage resolves the conventional‐vs.‐no‐tillage trade‐off by simultaneously cutting CO2 efflux to 2.0–3.0 g C m−2 d−1 and unlocking high nutrient availability for the rice rhizosphere. This scalable agronomic solution strengthens soil health, enhances plant physiology, reshapes microbial metabolism, and shifts paddy systems toward a net ...

Is just considering texture enough to define compaction on the basis of soil density?
The bulk density values indicative of compaction in clayey soils correspond to a wide range of values (1.30-1.47 Mg m-3), due to the diverse types of soil management.

Evaluation of wheat genotypes under tillage practices: application of technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution method [PDF]
Adoption of conservative agriculture at farm level is associated with reducing the production costs and leads to crop yield stability. The aim of this study was to prioritize experimental treatments based on different criteria by applying "technique for ...

Long term effects of different soil tillage systems on maize (Zea mays L.) yields
The effects of three tillage systems: no-tillage (NT), reduced tillage (RT) and conventional tillage (CT), and three levels of fertilization (0, 258 and 516 kg/ha NPK (58:18:24)), on the maize yield during ten years (1999-2008) were analyzed on the ...
