This study evaluated the effect of different ploughing depths on maize (Zea mays) growth at Nyankpala in the Northern Region of Ghana. Plant height, leaf count, and stem girth were measured at no-plough (NT), 10-20 cm (PD20), and 20-30 cm (PD30) depths. Soil bulk density and texture were also determined for NT, PD20, and PD30. Plant data were evaluated

The conventional implements utilizing drawbar power through the tractor tyre -soil interface are inefficient mainly due to poor traction efficiency and high wheel slippage. Tractor PTO operated implements have been reported to be more effective in regard to soil cutting ability, pulverization and less draft requirement.

Soil management techniques, especially tillage, have been linked to the creation of low-permeability pans that reduce soil infiltrability and increase runoff and soil erosion on agricultural soils. In Iran, the mouldboard plough is the standard tillage implement used for primary tillage and that could create a compacted plough pan, especially under wet

Dynamic effects of speed, depth and soil strength upon forces on plough components
Journal of Agricultural Engineering Research, 1992The dynamic effects of ploughing depth, speed and variations of soil resistance upon the forces that result from each plough component (share point, share wing, mouldboard and landside) are considered. The experiments were carried out under field conditions on clay and sandy soils. Both the depth and speed were measured continuously.

Measurement of 2400 clumps of root suckers of Brigalow (Acacia harpophylla F. vM.) showed that in over 90 per cent of clumps the depth from the soil surface to the centre of the parent root was less than 4 inches. Suckering was significantly shallower on non-gilgai than on gilgai soils.

Ploughing operation represents the most costly single item in the budget of an arable farmer. The rate of acquisition of farm tractors in South-Western Nigeria is fast growing despite its huge initial capital outlay. A substantial portion of these tractors are utilized essentially for ploughing operations among other uses.

Depth-Dependent Iceberg Plough Marks in the Barents Sea
1997Iceberg plough marks are found at all depths in the Barents Sea, down to 450 m. Keels of present-day icebergs observed in the region rarely exceed 100 m. Hence, most ploughmarks found at greater depths are relict. Plough mark degradation is dependent on a number of factors, such as sedimentation rate, degree of benthic activity and strength of bottom ...

The study was carried out at the experimental station of the Tobacco Institute of Zagreb at Pitomaca, in 1983-86, on semigley of unstable structure, with unfavourable texture and growing compactness, notably on eluvial and illuvial horizons. The treatments included the ploughing depths of 20, 30 and 40 cm and subsoiling of 0 or 60-70 cm. Deeper tillage
