Tillage Intensity Effects on Soil Structure Indicators—A US Meta-Analysis

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
Tillage intensity affects soil structure in many ways but the magnitude and type (+/−) of change depends on site-specific (e.g., soil type) and experimental details (crop rotation, study length, sampling depth, etc.).

Microbial Communities Associated With Long-Term Tillage and Fertility Treatments in a Corn-Soybean Cropping System

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Tillage and fertilization are common practices used to enhance soil fertility and increase yield. Changes in soil edaphic properties associated with different tillage and fertility regimes have been widely examined, yet, the microbially mediated pathways

Long-Term Corn–Soybean Rotation and Soil Fertilization: Impacts on Yield and Agronomic Traits

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Although crop rotations have been widely shown as an effective approach for improving yield or soil quality in the long term, the relationship between crop rotations and quality traits of crop or biochar-based fertilization is still unclear.

Crop rotation and tillage management options for sustainable intensification of rice-fallow agro-ecosystem in eastern India

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Presently, rice-fallows are targeted for cropping intensification in South Asia. Rice - fallows a rainfed mono-cropping system remain fallow after rice due to lack of irrigation facilities and poor socio-economic condition of the farmers.
