Chapter synopsis: This chapter discusses the principles and practices of no-tillage systems for vegetables (NTV), focusing primarily on tomato, onion and parsley cassava cultivation. It presents research regarding a long-term experiment of NTV for onion with winter crops and the effects on chemical, physical and biological properties of the soil and yield of the crop. It also reviews NTV for parsley cassava and concludes by discussing current and future trends for no-tillage systems for vegetables.
