Development of a small-scale power tiller for farmers in developing countries: A case study of Benin
This study examines the labour of small-scale farmers during ploughing and develops a power tiller with the view of reducing the hardness of work and increasing the field operation capacity.

Modern approaches to adaptive tillage complexes in crop rotation and intensive land use in the Middle Urals [PDF]
The article presents the results of many years of research on soil treatment systems and techniques. It is established that for the conditions of the Perm region on sod-podzolic loamy soils, the most optimal system of basic treatment and reception is: 1.

Effects of Different Soil Tillage Intensity on Yields of Spring Barley
Within the period 1990–2012, effects of different soil tillage intensity on yields of spring barley were studied in a field experiment in the sugar-beet producing region (Ivanovice na Hané, Czech Republic).

Experimental investigation of the work of a ploughing aggregate, operating according to the system ‘push- pull’ [PDF]
ArticleThe use of ploughing machine - and - tractor aggregates, operating according to the principle of ‘push - pull’ , finds increasing application in the world since it allows ensuring the stability of the movement and

Variation of tow force with velocity during offshore ploughing in granular materials [PDF]
Pipeline plough behaviour has been investigated by means of reduced scale physical model testing. A testing programme was devised to investigate the influence of permeability, relative density, and plough depth on the associated tow force measured during

Effect of different tillage intensity on yields and yield-forming factors in winter wheat
The paper presents results of a study on application of minimum tillage technologies when growing winter wheat. Experiments were performed in the sugar-beet-growing region with loamy chernozem within the period of 2005–2009.

Effect of Tillage Systems on the Yield and Quality of Winter Wheat Grain and Soil Properties
This study aimed to evaluate the yield and quality of winter wheat grain and soil properties in three tillage systems (TS): (1) Conventional (CT), (2) reduced (RT), and (3) no-tillage (NT). In the CT system, shallow ploughing (at a depth of 10–12 cm from

Method and System of Plowing Depth Online Sensing for Reversible Plough
Abstract The reversible plough is a quite useful farm machinery for deep tillage, which is directly mounted to the tractor. It works on both the left and right side with bilateral turnover mechanism and automatically reverses the position. According to its structure characteristic, based on deviation correction method, a depth online sensing model ...

Soil Tillage Systems and Wheat Yield under Climate Change Scenarios
In this study, the effects of three different main preparatory tillage operations: ploughing at 0.4 m (P40) and 0.20 m (P20) depth and harrowing at 0.20 m depth (MT) were investigated.
