THE STUDY OF AGROCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SOIL IN THE APPLICATION OF THE TECHNOLOGY OF NON-TILLAGE PLOWING

Abstract

This study investigates the agrochemical properties of soil under non-tillage plowing technology, a farming practice gaining popularity for its potential to enhance soil health and sustainability. Non-tillage plowing minimizes soil disturbance, thereby preserving soil structure and organic matter while improving moisture retention and reducing erosion. The research was conducted in various agricultural fields utilizing non-tillage methods, where soil samples were collected and analyzed for pH levels, nutrient content (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium), and organic matter content. Results indicate significant improvements in soil agrochemical properties compared to traditional tillage practices, highlighting the positive impact of non-tillage on nutrient availability and soil fertility. This paper discusses the implications of these findings for agricultural practices and provides recommendations for farmers and policymakers seeking to adopt sustainable farming methods. The study underscores the need for further research to explore the long-term benefits of non-tillage plowing in diverse agricultural contexts.
