Productivity of tef [Eragrostis tef] under conservation tillage practices in central Ethiopia
Field experiments were carried out to evaluate the productivity of tef under different tillage practices during 2016–2017 at Alem Tena and Minjar in Central Ethiopia. The experiment was carried out using split-plot design with three replications.

Effect of Gypsum, Sulfuric Acid, Nano-Zeolite Application on Saline-Sodic Soil Properties and Wheat Productivity under Different Tillage Types [PDF]
Soil degradation due to soil salinity and sodicity is considered a serious concern in arid and semiarid ecosystems. Due to arid climate even, normal soils are converted to saline-sodic soils.

The Effects of Reduced Tillage on the Soil Environment [PDF]
The physical characteristics of a particular soil affect its suitability for reduced tillage. Vegetable crops managed with reduced tillage generally will increase crop yields as drainage improves. Under reduced tillage, advantages over conventional tillage include better control of soil erosion, enhanced crop yields, soil water conservation, and more ...

Yield and quality characteristics of maize-forage legume mixtures cultivated under different tillage systems [PDF]
Planted forage grown under an appropriate cropping system and tillage practice can help to improve yield potential. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different tillage practices on the growth, nutrient composition and yield ...

Reduced tillage as an alternative to no-tillage under Mediterranean conditions: A case study
Most farmers in SW Spain usually apply traditional tillage (TT) with soil inversion to avoid potential problems of soil compaction after repeated application of no tillage (NT). NT might cause some difficulties for soil workability and crop development derived from the original soil conditions, and, consequently, other tillage options are evaluated ...

Five experiments on the method of tillage were conducted to determine the growth and yields of sugar beets to changes of soil physics from 1979 to 1983 in Sapporo. The treatments (reduced tillage and normal tillage : both planted in late 10 days of April and conventional cultivation : planted in early 10 days of May) were set in black andosol.
