in order to comparison of weeds mechanical control for sugar beet, a rotary cultivator was designed and constructed in first year, and compared with other mechanical control in second year. five treatments, included: rotary hoe cultivator, furrower cultivator, rotary cultivator, no weeding and manual weeding were compared. experiment design was random complete blocks design (rcbd) with three re...

in this study, the performance of different cultivation methods on sugar beet fields was evaluated. eight treatments were considered: a) use of a rolling cultivator twice during the growing season; b) use of a rolling cultivator three times during the growing season; c) use of a crescent cultivator twice during the growing season; d) use of a crescent cultivator three times during the growing s...

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...

Prefix 10.18034 This performance evaluation was conducted to pave the way for making use of Draught Animal Power Cultivator and cosequently possibilities of adaptation in our local condition between 2010 and 2011 in the Jimma zone two districts of southwestern Ethiopia on the farmers’ field to evaluate energy requirement. To improve weed management at the small holder farmers level, animal-draw...

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...
