Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Plowing Depth of Tillage and Forward Speed on the Performance of a Medium Size Chisel Plow Operating in a Sandy SoilS.A. Al-Suhaibani, A.E. GhalyProblem statement: Tillage is a process of creating a desirable soil condition for seed germination and growth. The tillage of soil is considered to be one of the biggest farm operations as the tillage operation requires the most energy on the farm. Chisel plow is widely used by farmers as a primary tillage tool. Performance data for chisel plow operation … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,111 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Draft Force for a 3-bottom Disc Plough Under Sandy Loam Soil ConditionsPaul Okoko, Emmanuel A. AjavThis study was performed to determine the draft force for a 3-bottom disc plough under sandy loam soil conditions. The experiments were conducted using five different tractor speeds (3.6, 5.4, 7.2, 9.0 and 10.8 kilometer per hour(km)) and three tillage depths (10, 20 and 30 centimeter(cm)) with a view to determine the actual implement speed at the different tillage depths. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 May 2020 · 7,384 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental Investigation of Thermo-Physical Properties of Soil Using Solarisation TechnologyAhmed Abed Gatea Al-Shammary, Abbas Kouzani, Akif Kaynak et al.Soil Thermo-Physical Properties (TPP) depend on heat transfer in the soil. This paper presents a study on different soil solarisation technologies influenced by soil TPP. This study evaluates three factors: The tillage depth for soil at three levels (15, 25 and 45 cm), the number of plastic film at three levels (single, double and without plastic film) and three cases … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 17 Jul 2017 · 7,957 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth and Development of the Black Saxaul Depending on Tillage in Arid Conditions of KazakhstanRuslan Akhmetov, Daniyar Dosmanbetov, Alimzhan Rakhimzhanov et al.The study aimed to develop technology for the artificial cultivation of saxaul plantations with minimal labor and money, allowing for achieving a high survival rate, growth intensity, and crop development. The Samara State Institution for the Protection of Forests and Wildlife studied the effectiveness of creating forest plantations using various tillage methods. Four soil preparation systems served as experiment variants. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2023 · 5,091 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Land Use Practices on the Organic Carbon Content, Cation Exchange Capacity and Aggregate Stability of Soils in the Catchment ZonesMosayeb Heshmati, Arifin Abdu, Shamshuddin Jusop, Nik Muhammad MajidProblem statement: Land use practice leads to changes in the physico-chemical properties of soils, such as Soil Organic Carbon (SOC), Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) and Soil Aggregate Stability (SAS) that cause soil erosion. Approach: Merek catchment, Iran suffers from land degradation due to poor land use practice. A study was carried out with the objectives: (i) to determine soil nutrient … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 25 Oct 2011 · 8,722 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Novel Disk-type Furrow Opener Used in No-Tillage System on Micro Environment of SeedE. Seidi, S.H. Abdollahpour, A. Javadi, M. MoghaddamProblem Statement: Offset Double-Disk Opener (DDO) is a popular furrow opener in conservation tillage. It has some limitations such as negative suction to penetrate in the soil, hair pinning and mixing seed and fertilizer in the slot. Because of importance of separation of seed and fertilizer in the slot, by adding two horizontal mini disks to DDO a modified opener … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,155 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Tillage Methods on Soil Fragmentation in Loamy-Clay SoilsYousef Abbaspour-Gilandeh, Vali Rasooli Sharabiani, Ahmad KhalilianProblem statement: Soil fragmentation is a primary aim in tillage in order to create a favorable soil environment for crop growth. Soil fragmentation is defined as the process of breakdown and crumbling of soil aggregates. Currently, there is no published research data on optimum tillage operations for seedbed preparation in loamy-clay soils of western Caspian Sea region of Iran.
