Study of fuel consumption in three tillage methods

Abstract: Akbarnia A., Farhani F., 2014. Study of fuel consumption in three tillage methods. Res. Agr. Eng., 60: 142-147.Fuel consumption per hectare of tilled land for the conventional or maximum tillage, reduced tillage using a multi-task machine, and no-tillage using a direct drill planter has been studied and compared. Time taken and number of tractor trips needed for performing tillage operations were used for comparison. Yield of crop per hectare was also used for the study. Duncan's multiple range test was used t… Show more

“…The CA benefits include less fuel consumption (Baker et al, 2007;Tahir et al, 2008;Lithourgidis et al, 2009;Akbarnia and Farhani, 2014), reduced soil loss due to enhanced aggregate stability and the protective effect of crop residues left over the soil (Friedrich et al, 2011;Sanderson et al, 2013;Vanlauwe et al, 2014). It is more productive as compared to conventional tillage because it improves soil quality and water use efficiency of plants (Samarajeewa et al, 2006;Brunel et al, 2013;Muchabi et al, 2014).…”

“…428.47ha -1 ) was observed in the wheat grown after mungbean in no tillage system. Thus, this study proved no tillage as low-input tool for cultivation compared to other tillage systems on account of no land preparation and minimal fuel consumption (Shahzad et al 2017;Akbarnia and Farhani 2014;Iqbal et al 2002).…”

“…Grain yield values of applications Akbarnia and Farhani (2014) investigated the effects of different tillage applications on wheat yield. The grain yield values were 8.07 t ha -1 in conventional soil tillage and 7.90 t ha -1 in reduced tillage, in addition to these, it was 6.33 t ha -1 in direct seeding.…”
