Influence of conservation tillage and zero tillage on arable weeds in organic faba bean production

open access: yesJulius-Kühn-Archiv, 2016
The field experiments were conducted in 2008, 2009 and 2010 on a Gleyic Cambisol near Goettingen, Lower Saxony, Germany. A crop sequence of summer barley, winter cover crops (intercropped oat and sunflower) and summer faba bean was examined under organic

Zero Tillage (ZT) Potato Cultivation [PDF]

open access: yesBhartiya Krishi Anusandhan Patrika, 2022
Background: Minimum input and Maximum output are the new emerging trends in agriculture. To cope up with the sharp rise in population and limiting farm land, as well as to increase farm income there is an immediate need to increase the present cropping intensity.

An investigation of tillage systems and implement design for water conservation in semi arid conditions in Botswana

open access: yes, 2006
Botswana, as a semi arid country, is faced with serious shortage of moisture for crop production. Its challenging climatic condition makes the little moisture received from summer rainfall insufficient.

Zero tillage and water productivity: A review [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Studies, 2020
Nevertheless, zero tillage is the best choice because crop residues retained in zero tillage decreases evaporation, controls soil temperature, reduces erosion, reduces total cultivation costs, increases soil organic carbon stock, enhances water use efficiency and increases crop yield on sustainable crops. A range of resource management technologies are

Decomposition of crop residues under conventional and zero tillage

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Soil Science, 2004
Field experiments were conducted to determine decomposition patterns of red clover (Trifolium pratense), field pea (Pisum sativum), canola (Brassica rapa) and wheat (Triticum aestivum) residues under zero and conventional tillage. Crop residue amounts produced in 2 trial years ranged from 1.6 t ha-1 for monoculture wheat to 6.05 t ha-1 for peas, and ...

Zero tillage in Manitoba : an evaluation by soil physical properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
The use of zero tillage for crop production reduces the time and power requirements for soil preparation as well as the cost. Soil physical properties are altered by tillage operations. A comparative evaluation of zero and conventional tillage was made by studying the soil physical properties to determine their response to both tillage systems.

Zero tillage for cereal production on forage sods in Manitoba [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
The effects of zero, minimum and conventional tillage on soil water content, soil compaction and crop growth on a fine-textured soil previously sown to perennial forages was studied over a two year period. The effect of glyphosate, 2,4-D and dicamba, alone or in combination was evaluated for the control of established alfalfa on the experimental site ...

IMPACT OF TILLAGE PRACTICES ON PROPERTIES OF SOIL, EVAPOTRANSPIRATION AND PRODUCTIVITY OF COWPEA IN NIGERIA

open access: yesTropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2023
Background: Tillage is one of the major threats to soil health which often results into soil physical degradation if not properly managed. Zero tillage is an alternative option from both economic and environmental protection of our soil resources points ...
