This book provides information on education, research, economic incentives and regulations and penalties in developing strategies to encourage conservation tillage. The information ranges from scientific research projects through the experiences of farmers. The positive and negative impacts of conservation tillage technology are considered for plant-soil-nutrient relationships and with respect to protecting the environment. Consideration is also given to the ways that conservation tillage cuts production costs, reduces total labor needs, trims peak labor loads, reduces fuel requirements and provides effective wind and water erosion control. Information is presented on the use of herbicides to control weeds and their effects on the environment.
