Abstract

Comparative investigation of ploughless tillage, ploughless tillage with cover crop for green manure and cover crop for winter mulch without autumn tillage was carried out in 2007-2010 at the Jonisklis Experimental Station of the Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry. The soil of the experimental site was clay loam. The cover crop (mixture of white mustard and oilseed radish) was sown after spring barley harvesting and stubble cultivation. Ploughless tillage and cover crop incorporation for green manure were performed by a combined stubble cultivator at 10-12 cm depth in the autumn. The cover crop for winter mulch was left without any tillage in the autumn. The field pea was sown in the following spring. The biomass yield of the cover crop was highly dependent on the year weather conditions during the autumn. Due to the application of the cover crop for winter mulch without any autumn tillage the field pea grain yield was reduced significantly compared to ploughless tillage. Post harvest cultivation of the cover crop and shallow incorporation of its biomass for green manure or leaving for mulch during winter reduced the migration of accumulated mineral nitrogen from topsoil into subsoil. Soil. The field experiments were carried out in 2007-2010 at the Jonisklis Experimental Station of the Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry in clay loam on silty clay Endocalcari Endohypogleyic Cambisol . The clay particles <0.002 mm in Aa horizon (0-30 cm) accounted for 27.0 %, and in B 1 horizon (52-76 cm) - 51.6 %. The topsoil agrochemical characteristic was: pH KCl - 6.4, mobile P 2O5 and K 2O - 118-120 and 240-265 mg·kg -1 of soil respectively, humus -
