A microplot experiment was conducted in soybean–wheat cropping system at New Delhi during 2010-11 and 2011-12 to study the effect of continuous or cyclic tillage, viz., conventional tillage (CT) and zero-tillage (ZT) and residue management of either soybean (SR) and/or wheat (WR) on yield performance and soil physico-chemical properties. The experiment was laid out in randomized block desi...

This study setout to investigate the effect of wheat residue, tillage, and nitrogen fertilizer management on some agronomic traits of soybean as a split split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. The main plots included wheat residue management: collecting and leaving residue and sub plot included tillage (without tillage and conventional tillage), and the sub...

residue management has a direct impact on soil physical and chemical characteristics which in turn have identical effects on sustainability of crop production in agroecosystems. the effects of wheat residual management practices (burning, plowing under and removal) on soil physical and chemical characteristics were investigated in this research. treatments were compared in a complete block desi...

abstract conservation tillage practices integrated with appropriate residue management is an efficient approach in sustainable agriculture to prevent the removal or burning of crop residues. two years field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of wheat residue management on yield, yield component and morphophysiological characteristics of corn. experimental design was split plot us...

high intensity evaporation from the soil surface due to low air humidity and poor soil structure and organic matter are constraints of agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions of iran. regionally, maintaining plant residue with tillage management is one method to improve these conditions. in this study, for a barley-corn rotation, four barley residue management methods for standing stubble (bu...

a trial study was carried out to assess the influence of the plant residue management in conjuction with application of different nitrogen sources on wheat yield and components, at the agricultural faculty of shahidchamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012.the experimental design was splitplot at randomized completed block design arrangement. the main plot were different wheat residue manage...

the effects of soil tillage methods and residue management were studied at miandoab agriculure station during 2003-2005. the experiment design was split block with the main plots devoted to residual management strategies (burning residue, crushing residue by disk, no treatment). subplots were tillage methods (moldboard plowing to 20-25 cm in fall, moldboard plowing to 20-25 cm in spring, moldbo...
