Soil Penetration Resistance after One-Time Inversion Tillage: A Spatio-Temporal Analysis at the Field Scale

open access: yesLand, 2020
Conservation agriculture may lead to increased penetration resistance due to soil compaction. To loosen the topsoil and lower the compaction, one-time inversion tillage (OTIT) is a measure frequently used in conservation agriculture.

Reduced tillage and green manures for sustainable cropping systems - Overview of the TILMAN-ORG project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Reduced tillage and green manures are environmentally friendly practices that increase levels of soil organic matter and biological activity, improve soil stability, and reduce fuel consumption and may mitigate the climate impact of crop production.

CO2 Emissions from Soils under Different Tillage Practices and Weather Conditions

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
CO2 emissions are one of the greenhouse gases that significantly contribute to climate change. The use of reduced soil tillage practices could contribute to the mitigation of CO2 emissions from soils under ongoing climate change conditions.

Studies on development of reduced tillage cultivation in sugar beet. I. Response of the growth and yields to reduced tillage.

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Crop Science, 1985
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.
