Effect of zero-tillage farming on duck production in southwestern Manitoba: preliminary study / W. Cowan

By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: MB : 1977Subject(s): Online resources: Abstract: Agronomic research scientists of the Department of Agriculture,University of Manitoba speculate that the zero-tillage method of farming could provide a viable alternative to the conventional method of farming now in use universally in the pothole region of southwestern Manitoba.Zero-tillage involves seeding directly into the previous year's stubble and herbicidal weed control without tillage. The system has been proven in the south-central clay, loam and sandy soil zones of the province with spring-seeded wheat, barley, flax, and rape (Donaghy 1973).
