“…The annual difference is especially concentrated in the February–March period (154 mm and 111 mm respectively), so this indicates that during this period, some of the nitrogen that was made available for soil organic matter mineralization may have been leached. All these consequences are much more accentuated in the CT because it has a greater porosity of the soil than NT where there is an increased number of soil micropores that facilitate the storage of soil moisture [ 81 , 82 , 83 ], a lower soil organic matter than NT ( Table 2 ) that plays a key role in water [ 84 , 85 , 86 ] and nutrient [ 87 , 88 , 89 ] retention also thanks to the mulching effect of the straw [ 88 ], as well as having no crop residues on the topsoil during the season due to the soil tillage, which involves a re-mixing of the horizons and consequently a dilution of the crop residues [ 90 , 91 , 92 ].…”

Mostly, precision agriculture applications include the acquisition and elaboration of images, and it is fundamental to understand how farmers’ practices, such as soil management, affect those images and relate to the vegetation index. We investigated how long-term conservation agriculture practices, in comparison with conventional practices, can affect the yield components and the accuracy of five vegetation indexes. The experimental site is a part of a long-term experiment established in 1994 and is still ongoing that consists of a rainfed 2-year rotation with durum wheat and maize, where two unfertilized soil managements were repeated in the same plots every year. This study shows the superiority of no tillage over conventional tillage for both nutritional and productive aspects on durum wheat. The soil management affects the vegetation indexes’ accuracy, which is related to the nitrogen nutrition status. No-tillage management, which is characterized by a higher content of soil organic matter and nitrogen availability into the soil, allows obtaining a higher accuracy than the conventional tillage. So, the users of multispectral cameras for precision agriculture applications must take into account the soil management, organic matter, and nitrogen content.

“…Crop rotations, CR) greatly affect physical and chemical soil characteristics (Angus et al, 2015;Lal, 2004). For instance, groundwater storage is favoured when the rotation is under a no-tillage system (Gozubuyuk et al, 2015) and when specific crops and techniques are adopted (e.g. corn after cotton better than corn after rice; Dakhlalla et al, 2016); thereby, nitrogen leaching can significantly be reduced to low levels through a proper combination of few crops (e.g.…”

Soil organic carbon (SOC) content can greatly affect soil quality by determining and maintaining important soil physical conditions, properties and soil functions. Management practices that maintain or enhance SOC affect soil quality and may favour the capacity of soils to sequester further organic carbon. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of these measures depends upon both the soil characteristics and the current SOC content.This study defines an indicator of soil potential stability (n-potential) allowing the most effective practices in terms of soil stability and capacity to store organic carbon to be selected. By relating the clay content to SOC content, the n-potential indicates the "potential" presence of non-complexed clay (NCC) in soils, enabling the soil stability and its capacity to store carbon (C) to be inferred. In this work, we classify soils of European regions based on five n-potential categories (i.e. >20; 15-20; 10-15; 5-10; <5). By relating the information provided by the n-potential to the specific texture of the analysed soils, priority actions (i.e. protecting the existing soil stability or promoting soil aggregate formation) that should be adopted are 2 identified. Our findings show that the selection of the appropriate SOC management practices can greatly contribute improving soils of European regions in terms of quality and capacity to store organic carbon.The n-potential contributes to the understanding of the physical consequences on soils arising from implementation of SOC management practices. This can guide the development of policies promoting the application of such practices, and can help farmers to select the practices that are most effective in maintaining or increasing of SOC content and soil stability.

“…Conventional soil tillage helps to limit weeds in field (Gozubuyuk et al, 2015) and wheat leaf diseases, like tan spot (caused by Pyrenophora triticirepentis) (Cotuna et al, 2015). Conventional tillage, also named as traditional, which characterizes with comparatively deep (up to 22-30 cm) soil mouldboard ploughing, is often used as soil tillage system (Rieger et al, 2008;Jug et al, 2011;Gozubuyuk et al, 2015;Hiel et al, 2018). The effect of different soil tillage systems (conventional (traditional) or reduced to varying degrees) on wheat yield was contradictory (e.g.…”

Wheat (Triticum) is one of the three most important field crops used for food in the world, as well as in Latvia. The two-factorial trial was conducted at the Research and Study farm 'Pēterlauki', Latvia, with the aim to find out the effect of soil tillage and crop rotation on winter wheat grain yield formation. Two soil tillage systems (conventional and reduced), and three crop rotations with different winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) proportion in it (100, 67 and 25%) and different fore-crops (wheat, oilseed rape (Brassica napus ssp. oleifera), faba bean (Vicia faba)) were used.
