TOPIC :
Practices For Tillage
Conservation

Any tillage or planting system in which at least 30
percent of the soil surface is covered by plant residue
after planting , To
Reduce water and wind erosion .
It optimize conservation of soil and water resources.
Conservation Tillage

 There are are five types :
 1) No tillage
 2) Mulch tillage
 3) Strip or Zonal tillage
 4) Ridge till
 5) reduced till
Types of Conservation
Tillage System

 Planting crops in previously unprepared soil by
opening a narrow slot, trench or band
 Sufficient depth and width to obtain proper seed
coverage.
 Herbicides used for weed management .
 Effective conservation practice for reducing soil
erosion and improving water quality.
 Minimum tractor power used .
No Tillage /Zero Tillage
 This is done by heavy implements .
 Sow seed and applied fertilizer at the same time .
 Zero tillage have increased yields in wet areas.
No Tillage /Zero Tillage

 It is also called stubble mulch forming .
 Causing least soil disturbance .
 Leave maximum crop residues on soil surface .
 A chisel plough used for break hard pan of soil .
Mulch Tillage System

 Protection of soil against raindrop impact
 Improved infiltration capacity .
 Mulch stability depends on rate of residue
decomposition .
 Climate and soil properties .
 Relief and rainfall characteristics .
Benefits

 The seedbed is divided into a seedling zone and a
soil management zone .
 5-10 cm wide tilled the soil for germination and
seedling establishment .
 The inter row zone left and protected by mulch.
 Strip tillage achieved by chiseling in row zone.
Strip Tillage System

 One third of the soil surface is tilled at planting with
sweeps or row cleaner .
 Planting of row crops is done on performed
cultivated ridges .
 Weeds are controlled by herbicides .
 Sometimes ridges goes on to six seasons .
 Planting is done on ridges .
Ridge Till System

 It is used in dry areas for collects of runoff water .
 It induce waterlogging in clay soils .
 Ridges are 20-30 cm wide and 10-20 cm high .
 It increase the water holding capacity of soil.
 Fertilizer and organic matter concentrated in ridges.
Benefits

 Any farming practice which involves less cultivation.
 Minimize soil disturbance .
 Weeds and grasses are controlled by herbicides .
 There are three types of reduced tillage :
 1) reduced cultivation
 2) direct drilling
 3) minimum tillage
Reduced Tillage

 It involves grazing of crops stubble and weeds .
 Followed by one cultivation .
 Followed by contact herbicides .
Reduced Cultivation

 It involves no cultivation sowing directly into
undisturbed soil.
 Stubbles removed by grazing .
 Remaining stubbles is burnt after rainy days .
Direct Drilling

 It involves retention of stubbles and weeds
controlled by herbicides .
 It involve one mechanical cultivation .
Minimum Tillage
