Hardcover . New. Tillage for Sustainable cropping is a state-of-the art examination of diverse tillage systems and tillage-induced edaphic changes and their implications for soil productivity and the environment. It provides a rational framework for tillage systems that takes soil and climatic characteristics and the availability of other edaphic inputs into consideration. This well-referenced volume also examines soil sustainability in terms of pollution, greenhouse gases, water contamination, growing production demands, and soil degradation and looks at the way crops respond to tillage techniques in terms of weed growth, root growth, crop yields and more. 196 Year of Publication 2004 8181890205
