The field experiment was conducted in 2001-03 to determine the effect of reduced soil tillage and due to direct sowing on energy input and yielding of winter triticale. It was found that using direct sowing significantly decreased grain yield of winter triticale, butit is not commensurate to benefits as a result of significant decrease of energy input on tillage. Simplifications in soil tillage up to direct sowing decrease grain yield of winter triticale by 6 percent, at significant (15-71 percent) reduction of energy input and costs of soil tillage (29-300 percent). The tillage method recommended for seedbed preparation can be based on such implements as swirl harrow or cultivator or should employ direct sowing
