Özet
Soil tillage is considered as the factor contributing to the total energy inputs in agricultural system. No-tillage (NT) is becoming increasingly attractive to farmers because it clearly reduces production costs in comparison to conventional tillage (CT). For this reason, six different soil tillage treatments in soybean production were tested within period 2003 and 2004. The effects of different tillage treatments as conventional tillage, reduced tillage (RT) and no-tillage on yield of soybean (Glycine max L.) and plant properties in south-eastern part of Turkey were studied. The soil was a clay loam with pH of 7.7 and organic matter content of 2.0%. The experiments were performed in randomized complete block design with six treatments and each treatment consisted of three replications. According to results, seedling emergence rates were not found significant between both the years and treatments (P>0.05). Results showed that the tillage treatments did not affect plant height, number of branches and first pod height for both the years. It was found that yield was significantly (P<0.001) different between years (F-year=41.288, df=1, 36; P=0.001). The yield in the second year was found to be higher than that of the first year. The highest yield was found in CT method as 3283 kg/ha and the lowest yield was found in NT method as 2520 kg/ha in year 2004. Protein, oil and ash content of soybean were not affected statistically (P>0.05) by tillage method.
