Principal component analysis is a valid method used for data compression and information extraction in a given set of experiments. It is a well-known classical data analysis technique. There are a number of algorithms for solving the problems, some scaling better than others. Wheat ranks as the staple food of most of the nations as well as an agent of poverty reduction, food security and world ...

the conservation system is one of the proper methods avoiding the loss of nutrients, soil erosion, and reduce production costs. this research was examined for studying the influences of tillage systems on the three cotton cultivars at karkandeh and hashm-abad stations in gorgan. the experiments were conducted in a randomized completely block design as split plot with three replications with fiv...

The paper presents comparison of three soil tillage systems in maize, winter wheat and soybean growing on anthropogenic Albic Luvisol in north-west Slavonia, Croatia, during 1996-1999. Tillage systems and implements were: 1. conventional system (CT)-plough, disc-harrow and combined implement, 2. conservation system (RT)-chisel plough and multitiller, 3. no-till system (NT). The aim of testing w...

Introduction Conservation tillage has been one of the most rapidly adopted agricultural practices of the past 15 years (CTIC, 1983). The primary impetus for conservation tillage has been decreased soil erosion; fuel, labor, and machinery costs; and increased soil water storage and yields (USDA, 1975). Conservation tillage may be broad­ ly defined as tillage practices that reduce soil and water ...

to evaluate the effect of combined use of different soil tillage methods and weed control on cotton yield, a split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design was conducted at the city of boshruyeh in 2012. experiment factors were tillage method as main-plots with three levels, including conventional tillage, no-till system and minimum tillage; and different methods of weed contro...

ern Tennessee (Stevens et al., 1992; Bradley, 1993; Triplett et al., 1996), conservation tillage practiced on silty clay Yield reductions from no-tillage cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) soils in northern Alabama resulted in 8 to 15% yield jeopardized adoption of conservation systems in the Tennessee Valley region of north Alabama in the early 1990s. We conducted a study from reductions compared ...

It is widely believed that soil disturbance by tillage was a primary cause of the historical loss of soil organic carbon (SOC) in North America, and that substantial SOC sequestration can be accomplished by changing from conventional plowing to less intensive methods known as conservation tillage. This is based on experiments where changes in carbon storage have been estimated through soil samp...

abstract in order to assess the environmental impact of agricultural activity, the long-term sustainability should be considered. in order to achieve solutions to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions in the production of rainfed sunflower, this assessment was conducted in the north east of iran. four production methods, i.e. conventional tillage (ct), tow reduced tillages (rt1and rt2)...

conservation tillage, a fast growing practice in iran, is considered as a means to achieve sustainability in agricultural systems. this study was carried out to determine the effect of tillage systems (no-tillage, minimum tillage and conventional tillage ) on yield and yield components of three irrigated wheat varieties. the field experiment was conducted at the experimental station of the univ...
