Managing runoff in rainfed agriculture under no-till system: potential for improving crop production
نویسندگان
چکیده
Strategies to mitigate degradation and ensure food water security are among the main challenges in agricultural development. Unconsolidated information about positive impact of conservationist practices on productivity increase is fundamental for their adoption by farmers. This study evaluated if saved rainfall excess catchment with terrace generates higher soybean corn yield due greater availability crop rooting zone. Experiments were conducted southern Brazil during years 2016/17 (soybean) [...]

Bacterial Indicator of Agricultural Management for Soil under No-Till Crop Production
The rise in the world demand for food poses a challenge to our ability to sustain soil fertility and sustainability. The increasing use of no-till agriculture, adopted in many areas of the world as an alternative to conventional farming, may contribute to reduce the erosion of soils and the increase in the soil carbon pool. However, the advantages of no-till agriculture are jeopardized when its...
متن کاملNo-till Grain Production in Wyoming: Status and Potential
In dryland cropping systems, optimal yields require that nutrient supply matches the soil’s yield potential supported by available moisture. Conservation tillage systems that leave at least 30 percent of the soil surface covered by residue dramatically increase moisture retained in the soil compared to crop-fallow systems. This enables producers to plant two, three, or four consecutive crops, o...
متن کاملDrought Frontiers in Rice: Crop Improvement for Increased Rainfed Production
The success of the Green Revolution in closing the gap between world population and food production was principally achieved by increasing crop productivity in favorable areas. However, this success has been limited in the rainfed systems, which are prone to frequent droughts and other abiotic stresses. Worldwide, drought affects approximately 23 million hectares of rainfed rice. Varieties comb...
