Winter Wheat and Spring Barley Canopies under Strip-Till One-Pass Technology

Modern agriculture promotes non-inversion, ploughless tillage systems, and simplified plant cultivation methods. Environmentally friendly production technologies must nevertheless guarantee high yields of good quality. In the years 2017/18–2019/20, studies were carried out in which it was assumed that these conditions could be met by strip soil with simultaneous application fertilisers paired-row sowing (strip-till one-pass (ST-OP). Two field experiments conducted to compare two cereal technologies: ploughless, non-inversion tillage, seedbed preparation, entire-surface fertilisation, narrowly spaced row (PL-ES); ST-OP, narrow rows (12 cm apart) a tilled (paired-row sowing), fertilised soil, 24.4-cm-wide inter-row untilled soil. Fields winter wheat spring barley investigated, assessing density spatial variation, height, yield components, yield. The morphological physiological indices plants canopies determined leaf area index (LAI), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), stomatal conductance, relative chlorophyll content leaves. ST-OP technology provides uniform planting canopy, especially under insufficient rainfall. cultivated this method featured shorter more stalks spikes, spikes greater weight number grains, than fields cereals grown PL-ES. LAI PAR inter-rows similar PL-ES higher wide, inter-rows. Leaves contained had conductance. This technology, yields, is an alternative sowing.
