Soybean field experiments were performed to investigate the weed-suppressing effects of different tillage systems and cover crop mulches at two locations in southwest Germany during 2014 and 2015. The influence of three different tillage systems on weed control efficacy, soybean plant density, and crop yield was determined. In the no-till system (NT), two different cover crops, (rye and barley)...

A two-year field study was conducted to investigate the performance of a lightweight trash-board moldboard plow (with and without a trash-board), as influenced by stubble height and water content. Both fields were measured for the performance of a trash-board moldboard plow when used during the optimization of the plowing depth, the water content, and the reaction forces. The results showed tha...

The purpose is to investigate substantiate relative position working bodies of improved plow-ripper. Scheme the plow-ripper given. consists left and right sections, a ripping share established down axle symmetry tool, with inclined racks. Analytics dependencies are mined define distance between organs them along Experiments have been carried out come true relation stance bodywork. that an incre...

Given a convex region in the plane, and a sweep-line as a tool, what is best way to reduce the region to a single point by a sequence of sweeps? The problem of sweeping points by orthogonal sweeps was first studied in [2]. Here we consider the following slanted variant of sweeping recently introduced in [1]: In a single sweep, the sweep-line is placed at a start position somewhere in the plane,...

efficient energy use in agriculture sector is one of the prerequisites to sustainable agriculture, because it allows financial savings, fossil resources preservation along with decreasing trend of air pollution. this research was conducted at the agricultural research field of zanjan university to determine the level of input energy in different tillage systems in forage maize production when i...

The paper deals with the issues of mechanization main till-age soil formation turnover, problems traction resistance and possible solutions. article has an analytical character, analysis ways means a solution to problem reducing is given based on results studying works leading scientists in this direction. A technical for improving design dump plow body proposed. process working use proposed bo...

Since fuel must be injected with appropriate pressure and time for accurate performance of diesel engines, then proper function of engine is influenced by accurate function of injector pump. At first total pump was designed by SolidWorks 2012 software. Then the total relationship of rotor, roller, internal cam ring, pole shoe and plunger in injector pump in MF285 tractor and their performance w...

crop rotation is one of the essential practices in sustainable agricultural systems, be-cause of its effects on soil fertility and other benefits including a reduction in weed compe-tition. a field experiment was conducted at chaparsar rice research station, tonekabon, iran, from 2002 to 2003 to assess the influence of crop rotation, time of planting, and till-age depth on rice (oryza sativa l....

Accurate simulation of agricultural management effects on N loss in tile drainage is vitally important for understanding hypoxia in the Gulf of Mexico. An experimental study was initiated in 1978 at Nashua, Iowa of the USA to study long-term effects of tillage, crop rotation, and N management practices on subsurface drainage flow and associated N losses. The Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM...

The objective of this study was to explore if more crop-specific plant growth modules can improve simulations of crop yields, and N in tile flow under different management practices compared with a generic plant growth module. We calibrated and evaluated the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM) with the Decision Support for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT v3.5) plant growth modules (RZWQM–DSSAT...
