“…When tillage treatments were compared, the results with ReCiPe endpoint and midpoint methods, respectively, revealed that the RT II S (Reduced Tillage II using strip tillage) treatment presented the best environmental performance compared to all the other tillage treatments in all the important impact categories. This result is in agreement with several studies [22,28,38,39]. However, the differences in the methodology and the way the "Reduced" and "No Tillage" agricultural practices are defined (even the conventional tillage found to use other than ploughing machinery) makes it difficult to have identical results.…”

“…However, the differences in the methodology and the way the "Reduced" and "No Tillage" agricultural practices are defined (even the conventional tillage found to use other than ploughing machinery) makes it difficult to have identical results. In a general perspective, though, it is highlighted that with respect to conventional tillage, reduced tillage and no tillage could achieve better environmental performances [22,28,38,39]. The reduction of the environmental load was mainly due to lower diesel fuel consumption and secondly to other inputs like fertilization, water, and seed use.…”

“…However, the intensive tillage destroys soil structural stability, deteriorates soil biological characteristics, and reduces the nutrient reserve and supply of soil (Nouri et al., 2019; Sun et al., 2018). Recently, the PT is gradually substituted with RT for higher energy efficiency and economic benefit under adopting the RT (He, Shi, & Yu, 2019; Pratibha et al., 2019; Sharma, Abrol, & Sharma, 2011). Nevertheless, continuous adoption of RT would raise and thicken the plow sole due to the shallow working depth (<15 cm), which impedes root proliferation and downgrowth, and is not conducive to the maintenance of soil productivity (He et al., 2019; Schneider, Don, Hennings, Schmittmann, & Seidel, 2017).…”

“…Tillage is a significant contributor to energy consumption and carbon emissary in the sector. Different management practices such as non-tillage, rotations and cover crops can mitigate GHG emissions, especially the ones related to CO2 and NO2 from savings in fuel and nitrogen volatility (Bais-Moleman et al, 2019;Pratibha et al, 2019;Sanz-Cobena et al, 2017b). Non-tillage contributes to organic matter (OM) accumulation, increasing the soil water retention capacity, biological activity, increase the efficiency of fertilization and reduces its use (Rusco et al, 2001;Sanz-Cobena et al, 2017b).…”
