Abstract The investigation was conducted in the 2019–2020 agricultural season Al-Thaghr area, north of Basrah Governorate, Iraq (latitude 31.145288N and longitude 47.431334E), clay soil. Two factors were used investigation. first factor three tillage systems (heavy by mouldboard plow, low chisel no-till system). second concentrations biocide Trichozon (4 g m -2 , 2 without adding pesticide). ex...

Syringopais temperatella Led. (Lep., Scythrididae) is a serious threat of barley and wheat in Jordan as it causes great loss crop. There growing interest the development innovative control strategies aiming to minimize environmental impact pest management improve safety agro-food chain. However, little attention has been paid on use cultural methods against pest, accordingly, this study aimed a...

drafts of major primary tillage implements were measured in a clay loam soil using a tension loadcell. implements consisted of a moldboard, a disk and a chisel plow each equipped with one tillage unit. a photoelectric speed sensor was used for actual forward speed measurements. during the study, the effects of forward speed and tillage depth on draft requirements were investigated. a general re...

one of the basic adjustments in application of agricultural implements, particularly tillage tools, is their work in a leveled state while in operation. throughout the ongoing research, and by application of electronic and hydraulic circuits, an intelligent system was designed, developed and evaluated. the device is expected to perform the plow longitudinal as well as lateral adjustments at the...

Wilhelm, W.W., Hinze, M.R. and Gardner, C.O., 1991. Maize hybrid response to tillage under irrigated and dryland conditions. Field Crops Res., 26: 57-66. The popularity of reduced-tillage cropping systems has emphasized the need to determine if maize (Zea mays L.) developed under conventional tillage systems (moldboard plow, disk, and harrow) is readily adaptable to conservation production syst...

Incorporation of manure into cultivated soils is generally recommended to minimize nutrient losses. A 3-yr study was conducted to evaluate sediment and nutrient losses with different tillage methods (moldboard plow, heavy-duty cultivator, double disk, and no-incorporation) for incorporation of beef cattle manure in a silage barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cropping system. Runoff depths, sediment lo...
