For example; management System A grouped together zero tillage, soybean rotation crops, reduced N inputs and controlled traffic practices.
In these areas, monoculture of cereals, which relies on frequent summer-fallowing and use of mechanical tillage, has been replaced by extended and diversified crop rotations together with the use of conservation tillage [122].
Tillage strategies included mouldboard ploughing (20 25 cm depth) and stubble cultivation (10 12 cm depth) in different combinations and timing, together with different options for straw management and catch crops.
"Ancient Tillage" was published in 1975, to immediate critical acclaim.
Most soils need to be aerated, which tillage does.
The concept of minimum tillage has received much attention.

That tillage would release carbon dioxide and methane.
Cultivation and tillage are standard practices for weed control.
In another type of minimum tillage, the land is broken and planted without further tillage in seedbed preparation.
