• Shallow non-inversion tillage in organic farming maintains crop yields and increases soil C stocks: a meta-analysis (2016, background): “It has been suggested that the success of reduced intensity tillage systems in organic farming is largely dependent on local environmental conditions, including climate and soil type (Vian et al. 2009; Krauss et al. 2010).”
• Influence of reduced tillage on earthworm and microbial communities under organic arable farming (2013, background): “Furthermore the incorporation of the grass clover sward as is common in reduced tillage regimes is challenging in organic arable systems, due to the risk of the second emergence of weeds after shallow tillage (Krauss et al. 2010).”
• Reduced Tillage and No-Till in Organic Farming Systems, Germany—Status Quo, Potentials and Challenges (2017, unknown): “Silage maize performed very well in an RT trial in Switzerland despite high weed infestations [65].”
• Organic versus Conventional Cropping Sustainability: A Comparative System Analysis (2018, background): “, 2010 [50] Weed density, cover, and biomass were 2–5 times greater in soils with reduced than conventional tillage.”
• The need to breed crop varieties suitable for organic farming, using wheat, tomato and broccoli as examples: A review (2011, background): “However, in reduced or minimum tillage systems, herbicide-free protocols are feasible [70,71] and could be further implemented into organic farming if varieties with increased competitiveness and/or resistance to mechanical”
• Reduced tillage effects on soil properties and growth of cereals and associated weeds under organic farming (2011, background): “Most of these studies were conducted in conventional agriculture (Singh and Malhi, 2006), while relatively little is known on the effects of reduced tillage on physical and biological soil parameters for organic farming systems considering different crop species under varying climatic conditions (Pe”
