The effects on sugarcane yields of deep tillage for land preparation on five different soil types in the coast lowlands of Natal are presented. Yields from the. rainfed plant and first ratoon crops indicate that, in general, there is little advantage in ploughing or subsoiling to depths greater than the conventional 20-25 cm. The only worthwhile response to deep tillage was obtained in a recent...

Appropriate tillage plays an important role in mitigating the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) in regions with higher crop yields, but the emission situations of some reduced tillage systems such as subsoiling, harrow tillage and rotary tillage are not comprehensively studied. The objective of this study was to evaluate the emission characteristics of GHG (CH4 and N2O) under four reduced til...

in order to assess the adaptation of elaeagnus angustifolia l. and fraxinus rotundifolia mill afforestation around tabriz international airport, the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of trees were measured in 96 experimental circular plots with a size of 300 m2. to study the edaphic effects of these species, nine samples were randomly collected from 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm depth of soil...

The depth of sampling is an important factor for evaluating soil stability. The objective of this study was to test soil aggregate particle-size fractions and soil organic carbon (SOC) in water-stable aggregate by vegetation restoration through 0–60 cm soil profile. We collected soil samples in 30 years old Robinia psendoacacia (Rr); Platycladus orientalis (Po); Pinus tabulaeformis (Pt); abando...

Subsoiling has been acknowledged worldwide to break compacted hardpan, improve soil permeability and water storage capacity, promote topsoil deepening root growth. However, there exist certain factors which limit the wide in-field application of subsoiling machines. Of these factors, main two are poor quality high energy consumption, especially undesired tillage depth obtained in field with cov...

Hydraulic soil insertion device is a key component of orchard gas explosion subsoiling and fertilizing machine to realize rod fixed point fertilizer injection into soil. In order explore the influence main working parameters structural on depth cylinder pressure hydraulic during process, were optimized ensure quality efficiency. this paper, force analysis was performed parameter equation resist...

this paper attempts to examine the effect of water spreading on soil physico-chemical properties, and vegetative characteristics of common mesquite. for this, on the basis of flood water discharge, three sections of lands were accurately selected at kosar water spreading experimental station, in tangestan, bushehr province. in each section, 6 profiles were digged out and studied; meanwhile soil...
