A field experiment was conducted to compare the effects of long-term tillage and cropresidue management on some physical properties and nitrate leaching of a Typic Haploxerertsoil under winter wheat (Triticum vulgare L.)-soybean (Glycine max L.) double-croppingsystem. The tillage systems consisted of conventional tillage with stubble (CT1), conventionaltillage with stubbles burned (CT2), heavy ...

Abstract Long-term tillage and fertilization system have a strong impact on earthworms biomass abundance in agriculture soils, however, enumerating their influence mungbean plantation remains little studied. The purpose of this research was to study the effect continous interaction under plantations. Two factors treatments consisted (minimum intensive tillage) (without by NPK (15:15:15) + chick...

A microplot experiment was conducted in soybean–wheat cropping system at New Delhi during 2010-11 and 2011-12 to study the effect of continuous or cyclic tillage, viz., conventional tillage (CT) and zero-tillage (ZT) and residue management of either soybean (SR) and/or wheat (WR) on yield performance and soil physico-chemical properties. The experiment was laid out in randomized block desi...

Optimal use of management systems including tillage and cover crops are recommended to improve available nutrient contents in soils sustain agricultural production. The effects on organic carbon three methods (conventional tillage, minimum no-tillage) different such as flaxseed oil, buckwheat, soybean, pea, corn, sorghum, spring oilseed rape sugar beet were evaluated a short-term experiment lig...

Kucey and Schaalje, 1986; Reeves et al., 1993; Randall et al., 1997; Torbert et al., 2001). Tillage and N management systems can have a significant effect Many soil and water quality problems are associated on N use by corn (Zea mays L.) and nitrate (NO3–N) movement with conventional tillage, along with other problems that through the soil profile. Potential water quality and NO3–N loss probaff...

lack of sufficient information on conservation tillage systems leads to the dominating use of conventional tillage practice in most parts of iran. testing other management practices may help in decision making regarding the types of tillage systems that reduce soil deterioration. a three- years field experiment was conducted to study the effects of conventional (ct), reduced (rt) and no-till (n...

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) defines conservation tillage as a tillage system that leaves enough crop residue to adequately protect the soil from erosion throughout the year. The percent of cover required varies by field according to soil type, slope, crop rotation, winter cover crops used and other factors (NRCS website). Conservation tillage in general and notill practice...

Changes in soil physical and chemical properties were evaluated in several on-farm studies located in rainfed, hardsetting red Al®sols (Ferric Luvisols) and in irrigated, self-mulching Vertisols (Chromic Vertisols) of eastern Australia. The objective of the studies was to evaluate changes in soil physical and chemical properties with time under commercial farming situations where changes had be...

A field experiment with six treatments was conducted to study the nitrogen reserves in summer maize topsoil on the north China plain. Results showed that topdressing significantly increased topsoil nitrogen reserves. Summer corn topsoil nitrogen reserves were affected by several management measures. Shallow tillage, wheat straw no-returning and deep intertillage at the corn seedling stage signi...

in order to study the effects of conventional and conservation tillage with management residue on wheat physiological properties, a field experiment was conducted in 2013-2014 at mashhad agricultural and natural resources research center of razavi khorasan province. this experiment was carried out as split plot design based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. main plo...
