Assessing the effects of no-till cultivation practices on soil health

Code: 9781801466158
Alison Hamm and Daniel K. Manter, USDA-ARS, USA

Chapter synopsis: The goal of this chapter is to assess the effect of no-till (NT) practices on soil health. NT is a long-established method for controlling erosion, and has been increasingly recognized as improving soil physical, chemical, and biological health without compromising yield. This chapter explores the wide range of research on the effects of NT on the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soils, as well as continuing challenges to address in NT research and practice.
