“…Strategic deep tillage (SDT) is a single or occasional practice with a deep ripper, rotary, spader, mouldboard plow or disk plow to help sustain the long-standing productivity of the no-till system (Renton and Flower, 2015; Roper et al, 2015; Rincon-Florez et al, 2016; Kuhwald et al, 2017; Scanlan and Davies, 2019).
