  2. Crop residue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_residue

    The residue can be ploughed directly into the ground, or burned first. In contrast, no-till, strip-till or reduced-till agriculture practices are carried out to maximize crop residue cover. Simple line-transect measurements can be used to estimate residue coverage. [1] Process residues are materials left after the crop is processed into a ...

    Once the stems and leaves have been distilled for two to three hours, to separate the oil from the palmarosa plant matter, then the leftover grass residue is turned into manure or composted. [12] The most efficient way to grow palmarosa is in a nursery with much irrigation and soil pH of 7-8. [13]

  7. Crop rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_rotation

    Protection against soil loss is maximized with rotation methods that leave the greatest mass of crop stubble (plant residue left after harvest) on top of the soil. Stubble cover in contact with the soil minimizes erosion from water by reducing overland flow velocity, stream power, and thus the ability of the water to detach and transport ...

  8. Pesticide residue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesticide_residue

    The term “pesticide residue” includes residues from unknown or unavoidable sources (e.g. environmental) as well as known uses of the chemical. The definition of a residue for compliance with maximum residue limits (MRLs) is that combination of the pesticide and its metabolites, derivatives and related compounds to which the MRL applies. [4]

  9. Tillage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tillage

    Reduced tillage [note 1] leaves between 15 and 30% crop residue cover on the soil or 500 to 1000 pounds per acre (560 to 1100 kg/ha) of small grain residue during the critical erosion period. This may involve the use of a chisel plow, field cultivators, or other implements.
