Tillage is one of the most important practices affecting soil physical and hydraulic properties. Its effects may vary intensely according to tillage method. This study aims evaluate different methods (moldboard plow+disk harrow, moldboard plow+rotary tiller chisel harrow) drainage (subsurface non-drainage) on properties in a clay loam soil. The experiment was conducted split-plot time statistic...

Nowadays, one of the main tasks of Ukrainian coal industry is increasing labour productivity by means of complex mechanization and automatization of mining operations with usage of modern equipment. The best example is implementation of modern plow complexes on Western Donbas mines, PJSC “DTEK Pavlogradvugillia”. Currently, plowing is one of perspective directions of coal extraction development...

Plant pathologists' traditional recommendations have been to clean-till fields. A few passes with the disk were good. Better yet, moldboard plow the residue under. Even better, burn the stubble, then plow it. Unfortunately, clean-tilling fields did not turn out to be a sustainable practice. Water and wind erosion claimed too much top soil and threatened to reduce the yield potential of our fiel...

the aim of this research was to investigate performance of two combined plows compared to conventional plow. the experiments were conducted in a loamy soil texture with moisture content of 16-18% in karaj region of iran. combination of moldboard+chisel plow and disk plow+chisel plow were compared with conventional moldboard plow as three treatments. data was statistically analyzed using rcbd in...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of tillage methods to obtain suitable seedbed for monogerm seed. therefore, a split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replicatians was conducted at darab station of fars province. the main plot was seedbed prepration at two levels including fall and spring season. subplot included 1) moldboard plow a...

A field experiment was performed in Southwest Germany to examine the effects of long-term reduced tillage (2000–2012). Tillage treatments were deep moldboard plow: DP, 25 cm; double-layer plow; DLP, 15 + 10 cm, shallow moldboard plow: SP, 15 cm and chisel plow: CP, 15 cm, each of them with or without preceding stubble tillage. The mean yields of a typical eight-year crop rotation were 22% lower...

the main object of this study was to evaluate the effect of tillage and crop residues management of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) on quantification and qualification yield of corn (zea mays l.). treatments were laid out in complete randomized block design with seven treatments and three replications and include (1) fire of straw and stubble, plow, disc and furrower (2) gathering and transfer of s...

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...
