  2. Post-fire seeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-fire_seeding

    A comparison of commonly used soil stabilization treatments found that wood and straw mulch reduced water erosion rates by 60 to 80%, contour-felled log erosion barriers 50 to 70%, hydromulch 19% and grass seeding had little effect the first year during low intensity rainfall events and all were relatively ineffective in high intensity rainfall ...

  3. Organic lawn management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_lawn_management

    A primary element of organic lawn management is the use of compost [2] and compost tea to reduce the need for fertilization and to encourage healthy soil that enables turf to resist pests. [3] A second element is mowing tall (3" – 4") to suppress weeds and encourage deep grass roots, [4] and leaving grass clippings and leaves on the lawn as ...

  4. Stale seed bed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stale_seed_bed

    With soil solarization, the seed bed is covered with a clear plastic sheet which heats the soil to a temperature that kills pests, pathogens, and weeds. With occultation, black plastic or silage tarps are laid over the soil, creating a moist and warm environment in which weed seeds germinate, and then die due to lack of light.

  5. Tillage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tillage

    A Kenyan farmer holding tilled soil. Dries the soil before seeding. [17] Soil loses nutrients, like nitrogen and fertilizer, and its ability to store water. [17] [note 2] Decreases the water infiltration rate of soil. (Results in more runoff and erosion [17] [19] as the soil absorbs water more slowly than before) [note 3]

  6. Broadcast seeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_seeding

    Broadcast seeding works best for plants that do not require singular spacing or that are more easily thinned later. [1] After broadcasting, seed is often lightly buried with some type of raking action, often done using vertical tillage tools. Utilizing these tools increases the success rate of germination by increasing seed-to-soil contact. [1]

  7. No-till farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-till_farming

    Tillage is the agricultural preparation of soil by mechanical agitation, typically removing weeds established in the previous season. Tilling can create a flat seed bed or one that has formed areas, such as rows or raised beds, to enhance the growth of desired plants. It is an ancient technique with clear evidence of its use since at least 3000 ...
