The Applications of No-tillage in Turkey

Year 2017, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 54 - 63, 27.12.2017

Abstract

No-tillage is
economically viable, erosion limiting crop production system in which the crop
planted directly into the previous crop’s stubble with minimum soil
disturbance.
When compared to conventional tillage, the no-tillage
system provides nitrogen accumulation in the soil and also improves soil
aggregation and moisture holding capacity.
In addition, the no-tillage increases N and C concentrations, microbial
carbon mass, and bacterial and fungal populations. It also reduces CO2
and NO2 emissions and fuel consumption, and increases crop yield
over long periods. There are several factors that are effective in the success
of this system. These factors include the type of no-till seeder, stubble
condition, sowing depth and time, crop rotation and the selection of the
varieties. When studies on this subject are examined, it can be said that there
is a need for more specific researches in order to spread the no-tillage
rapidly throughout the country.
For the foreseeable future, facilitating
national development strategies for up-scaling of no tillage, conducting training
course with national organizations remain a high priority to promote no tillage
systems.
Our purpose in this research is to examine the scientific
publications and projects about no-tillage in Turkey and to discuss the
difficulties in the implementation phase of the method. It is also one of the
goals of trying to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of Turkey for
no-tillage and conventional tillage.
