SYSTEME TRAVAIL REDUIT SOL [2 records]

Record 1 2025-04-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Farming Techniques
CONT

In the low-till system, production beds are never, or very infrequently, tilled and permanent walkways are built between the beds. Initially, weeds are suppressed by a mulch of the farmer's choosing. Over time, weed pressure is reduced because new weed seeds are not produced or brought to the surface.
