Abstract:
For establishing the best
conservation technologies of tillage
mechanization from NE Romania in grain
maize crop, six technology variants were
tested in the spring of year 2007. In each
technology variant, we have determined the
qualitative indices for every work
equipment and the energetic and
exploitation indices for each farm
equipment. After crop sowing, we have
determined for each variant, soil resistance
to penetration, mean weighted diameter of
soil structural elements and water stability
of these elements. At the same time, we
have determined the fuel consumption per
hectare, for mechanized tillage and sowing.
We have also found that when selecting the
mechanization technologies of soil tillage,
we should take into account the obtained
seed yields. After the analysis of the
obtained results, we have established the
best mechanization technologies that
ensured soil conservation conditions for
maize crop.
