The effects of no-tillage with subsoiling on soil properties and maize yield......
author:adminOctober 20,2015
Soil sodicity and salinization are two major issues concerning agricultural production in Northern China and the affected areas are expanding at a rate of 11.5 Mha/year. The effects of two treatments, i.e. notillage with subsoiling and straw cover (NDetails

Crop performance as affected by three opening configurations for no-till......
author:adminOctober 20,2015
The furrow opening configuration used by no-till seeders can have a major effect on crop emergence in conservation tillage systems. This is particularly important in annual double-cropping regions (winter wheat and summer maize) of northern China wheDetails

The effect of conservation tillage on crop yield in China
author:adminOctober 20,2015
Traditional agricultural practices have resulted in decreased soil fertility, shortage of water resources and deterioration of agricultural ecological environment, which are seriously affecting grain production. Conservation tillage (CT) research hasDetails

The adoption of conservation tillage in China
author:adminOctober 20,2015
Conservation tillage (CT) has been recognized as an advanced agricultural technology that may reduce drought and improve the physical condition of soilsworldwide. An increase inwater infiltration and a reduction inwater andwind erosion can be achieveDetails

The adoption of annual subsoiling as conservation tillage in dryland maize and wheat cultivation in n
author:adminOctober 20,2015
Soil compaction caused by random traffic or repetitive tillage has been shown to reduce water use efficiency, and thus crop yield due to reduced porosity, decreased water infiltration and availability of nutrients. Conservation tillage coupled with sDetails

Spring wheat performance and water use efficiency on permanent raised beds in arid northwest China
author:adminOctober 20,2015
Permanent raised beds have been proposed as a more productive and water-efficient alternative to the conventional system of flat, flood-irrigated bays for planting narrow-spaced crops in arid north-west China. Data from a field experiment (20052007)Details

Soil Structure and Crop Performance After 10 Years of Controlled Traffic and Traditional Tillage Crop
author:adminOctober 20,2015
Soil degradation and the accompanying decline in crop yields are the main limiting factors for the further development of agriculture on the Chinese Loess Plateau. A 10-year experiment was conducted in Linfen on the Loess Plateau to assess the potentDetails
