Limited yield penalties in an early transition to conservation agriculture in cotton-based cropping systems of Benin

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Transitioning toward minimum or no tillage is challenging for smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), due to the possible yield penalties during the initial years of a transition. Understanding the early impacts of such transitions is crucial in

Crop and Soil Responses to On-Farm Conservation Tillage Practices in the Upper Midwest

open access: yesAgricultural & Environmental Letters, 2019
In the US upper Midwest, the narrow growing season causes many farmers to presume yield losses when reducing tillage. The purpose of this study was to determine how four production-scale tillage systems affected residue cover, stand populations, crop ...
