As a sustainable agricultural practice no-till is always recommended by the conservation agriculturist. Most definitely, it changes the soil ecosystem (enhances the microbial community) and the functioning of the soil. Manny researchers observed an increase in organic matter and enhanced water holding capacity. Does it mean that no-till will significantly increase steady-state infiltration rate or (field saturated hydraulic conductivity)? How much regional weather (or climate) could impact the re-building/regeneration of soil?
Processing or shortened processing over a long period of time (30 years) can increase the infiltration rate in a stable state compared to conventional processing
Yes definitely.
These type practices is cause to increase of organic matter in soil. Therefore, it can increase infiltration rate.
If I can, I will search scientific papers related to this issue.
This practice can increase inflation by increasing soil fertility.
No or reduce tillage will increase infiltration by increasing soil fertility
Appriciate your time and Thanks all of you answer. Could you please describe the mechanism of no-till that must improve steady state infiltration rate? And soil fertility is the sum of many patamers. Specifically whats going on in soil, need a clarification for increasing infiltration.
