Effects of soil tillage and nitrogen on winter wheat yield and weed biomass

In a three year study (1994-96) reduced soil tillage variants proved satisfactory for winter wheat grown on Humogley soil in Eastern Croatia in the absence of herbicides.During the experiment the conventional tillage (ploughing, disk-harrowing, standard sowing) did not give significantly higher yiel...

Summary:In a three year study (1994-96) reduced soil tillage variants proved satisfactory for winter wheat grown on Humogley soil in Eastern Croatia in the absence of herbicides.During the experiment the conventional tillage (ploughing, disk-harrowing, standard sowing) did not give significantly higher yields compared to the reduced tillage treatments (disk-harrowing; tillage by multitiller with chisels; seedbed preparation (rototiller)+sowing by rotosem; and ploughing, seedbed preparation+sowing by rotosem).Production of weed biomass at the conventional tillage equalled the treatment tillage by rototiller+sowing by rotosem, but was significantly lower than in other tillage treatments.
