“…Tractor forward speed is most prominent operational parameter that influences the draught forces, which directly affects the tillage quality and tractor fuel consumption. Draught requirements were changed due to increase or decrease with forward speed and type of implement used same order of magnitude has been found by Molari et al, (2017). The researchers found that with increase in speed at an optimum level (4.2 Km/h) the soil pressure increases linearly, after that decrease with increase in speed.…”

In India near about 60% population is engaged in agriculture. Soil loosening is a primary method of cultivation before seeding. There are number of tillage tools used for primary cultivation i.e. cultivators, rotary tillers, moldboard plough and chisel plough, rotavators etc. During soil cultivation wear occurs due to interaction of tillage implement and soil particles, which in turn decreases tillage quality and increase draft forces and fuel consumption of tractor. Tool wear reduces farmer’s efficiency, costing millions of dollars per year to Nation’s economy. Knowledge of tillage depth and ploughing speed save the tillage time and improves tractor efficiency. In this study it is attempted to relate the influence of tillage depth and tractor speed on primary tillage tools.

Determination of qualitative working indices of harrows with elastic fangs

In modern agriculture, grinding, levelling, loosening the soil surface layer and weed destruction, with application in the vegetable and technical crops sector, are carried out by a wide range of agricultural machines generically called harrows. These operations must be carried out by splitting on the natural lines of cohesion and not by hitting, cutting, compressing, breaking, when everything turns to dust. The paper presents the field tests for a harrow with elastic fangs in order to determine the following qualitative work indices: degree of soil grinding, degree of plant damage, degree of weed destruction, degree of levelling, working depth and operating energy indices for the maintenance of corn and sunflower crops.

“…Moreover, in some cases of hydrogeological instability, when up-down ploughing or contour ploughing by rotating the soil slice downstream is carried out on a hilly field, soil erosion becomes prominent [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42].…”

In order to implement environmental protection, within the Soil Cadastre, previously proposed as a multipurpose inventory that aims to promote sustainable soil uses, the hydrogeological instability caused by human activities is the focus of this work. These activities can be aimed at sustainable agricultural soil use or the building of roads to allow the access to the fields. The soil’s hydrogeological instability causes the unsustainable use and management of a cadastral parcel. Therefore, the aim of this work is to propose a nomenclature for hydrogeological instability risks, as well as the best practices of conservative soil tillage in case studies, in order to reduce environmental impact. According to the proposed Soil Cadastre, the missing environmental sustainability of a parcel and the reason for this must be communicated to the field owner or manager. In a hilly area of inland Western Sicily, four main risk types of hydrogeological instability were identified: hydrogeological instability (caused only by natural factors); hydraulic-pedological farming instability (crop not suitable for the field for missing or insufficient soil drainage and landslides); hydraulic-infrastructural instability (built up infrastructures unsuitable for the site); hydraulic-infrastructural-pedological-management instability (field improvements changing the downflow line and crop operations not suitable for the soil and climate parameters). The farm owner or manager must be informed about the risk type affecting their fields in order to perform the best practices (i.e., conservative soil tillage), for implementing or restoring a sustainable soil use or management in each cadastral parcel.
