Enhanced soil quality with reduced tillage and solid manures in organic farming - a synthesis of 15 years [PDF]
Demands upon the sustainability of farming are increasing in step with climate change and diversity loss. Organic farming offers a viable approach. To further improve organic management, three strategies with potential to enhance soil quality are being ...

Light Drone-Based Application to Assess Soil Tillage Quality Parameters. [PDF]
The evaluation of soil tillage quality parameters, such as cloddiness and surface roughness produced by tillage tools, is based on traditional methods ranging, respectively, from manual or mechanical sieving of ground samples to handheld rulers, non ...

Review of Discrete Element Method Simulations of Soil Tillage and Furrow Opening
In agricultural machinery design and optimization, the discrete element method (DEM) has played a major role due to its ability to speed up the design and manufacturing process by reducing multiple prototyping, testing, and evaluation under experimental ...

An Overview of the Impact of Tillage and Cropping Systems on Soil Health in Agricultural Practices
There is currently a demand to grow more crops in less area as a result of urbanization’s reduction of agricultural land. As a result, soil fertility is gradually declining. To maintain soil fertility, various management methods are used in modern times.

The Nitrogen Fixation and Yielding of Pea in Different Soil Tillage Systems
The field experiment was carried out in 2013 and 2014 as part of a long-term experiment to test the influence of different soil tillage systems (conventional, reduced, direct sowing) on (a) the yield of summer pea (Pisum sativum L.) and (b) the amount of

Influence of Soil Tillage Systems on the Yield and Weeds Infestation in the Soybean Crop
Soybean is an important crop due to its multiple uses but also due to its agronomic advantages. Regardless of the agrotechnical system practiced, in the success of the crop, a very important role is represented by weed control.
