- This second edition contains 19 chapters focusing on no-tillage technologies, particularly those related to no-tillage seed drilling, from a variety of accumulated experiences over the past 40 years. It also provides a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of no-tillage in general. Topics added or covered in more detail include: (i) soil carbon and how its retention or sequestration interacts with tillage; (ii) controlled traffic farming as an adjunct to no-tillage; (iii) a comparison of the performance of generic no-tillage opener designs; (iv) the role of banding fertilizer in no-tillage; (v) the economics of no-tillage; (vi) equipment used by small-scale farmers; (vii) forage cropping by no-tillage; (viii) a method for risk assessment of different levels of machine sophistication. This book represents a major resource for practitioners and academics in agronomy, soil science and agricultural engineering.
