Abstract

Abstract. In appropriate patterns of tillage in wheat, three methods commonly cultivated as a maximum for tillage, planting a multifunctional device as minimum tillage and direct seeding cultivation system as no tillage operations together are comparable. Analysis of variance and mean cost of land preparation and time spent on the three methods of tillage operations shows that maximum conventional tillage and planting allocated to the most and direct seeding without tillage operations allocated to the lowest cost and time. In conclusion, due to lower production costs and the income and reduce soil compaction, Instead, the usual method of planting is recommended to especially in dry lands and farms with irrigation and plant debris and with soil low light or light meal, or the non-tillage direct seeding method used.
