Towards sustainable plant production - carbon sequestration and soil life in arable farming: Farm level comparison between England and Finland in No-till production
2014
Knaapi, Jussi
Conservation Agriculture, No-till in this farm level case study, is largely adopted in dry or erosion prone conditions. The need to utilize sustainable production methods has also become a very important topic in conditions where conventional tillage and practices have been used. There are several reasons for this like: Economical pressures, environmental causes and EU regulations. To be able to learn and compare how the same common problems are solved, we have started a two dimension Farm level Case study between England and Finland. We have chosen as similar as possible conditions and farm types. Both farms are located on heavy clay soil, with relatively low annual rainfall. In both areas plow culture is still dominant and no-till considered difficult due to very heavy clay soil with low organic matter.
