Conservation Tillage

Science, 1985
Conservation production systems combine tillage and planting practices to reduce soil erosion and loss of water from farmland. Successful conservation tillage practices depend on the ability of farm managers to integrate sound crop production practices with effective pest management systems.

No-Tillage Agriculture

Science, 1980
The no-tillage cropping system, a combination of ancient and modern agricultural practices, has been rapidly increasing in use. By the year 2000, as much as 65 percent of the acreage of crops grown in the United States may be grown by the no-tillage practice. Soil erosion, the major source of pollutants in rural streams, is virtually eliminated when no-

No-tillage, Strip-tillage, and Chisel Plow Tillage Trial

2013
Farmers in central and north central Iowa are often criticized for low adoption of no-tillage systems. No-tillage is often faulted with cooler, wetter soils and subsequently reduced yields. An alternative to conventional tillage and no-tillage systems is strip-tillage where the benefits of both are ...

Occasional tillage in no-tillage systems: A global meta-analysis

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
No-tillage (NT) is a major component of conservation agricultural systems. Challenges that have arisen with the adoption of NT include soil compaction, weed management, and stratification of organic matter and nutrients. As an attempt to overcome these challenges, occasional tillage (OT) has been used as a soil management practice in NT systems ...

Tillage (plowing, subsoiling and no-tillage) effect on soil erodibility

1995
The effect of three different soil tillage systems (plow, subsoiling and no-tillage) on soil losses by runoff and “splash”, was determined in situ using a rain simulator. These determinations were carried out in a field experiment under the Project “Soil Tillage in Dry and Irrigated Farming” (EU Program AGRIMED), installed in a Cambisol from granite ...

Conservation Tillage, No-Tillage and Related Technologies

2003
There is increasing awareness all over the world of the negative effects of conventional agriculture and the need to change traditional agricultural practices. The key problem of conventional agriculture faces, especially in the tropics, is the steady decline in soil fertility, which is closely correlated to the duration of soil use.

Clod movement and tillage tool characteristics for modeling tillage Erosion

Journal of Soil and Water Conservation, 2002
Soil erosion due to tillage is proportional to the local slope curvature. The value of the coefficient of proportionality (tillage transport coefficient) depends on the interaction between tillage tool and soil. These interactions have been partly modelled as a 3 phase motion: drag (depending only on tool characteristics) when the soil is in contact ...

Water Infiltration Under No-tillage, Minimum Tillage and Conventional Tillage Systems on a Sandy Loam Alfisols

2004, Ottawa, Canada August 1 - 4, 2004, 2004
A study was conducted on a tropical Alfisols on the Teaching and Research Farms of University of Ibadan in order to determine the effect of three tillage (no-tillage, minimum and conventional tillage) systems on infiltration of water in the soil. The experiment was a split-plot design with three replications.
