Recent years have brought a change of approach to soil management. An increasing number of farmers are changing their approach from the conventional approach to a variety of no-tillage solutions. In many cases, these are only partial, depending on the previous crop and the given area. Often farms perceive the need for a different agro-technology, if they change tillage practices, they also have to change their sowing methods.
This research looks at different tillage systems and their effects on the environment. In this context, we will investigate conventional and multiple no-tillage systems, and the emergence time of maize hybrids under the environmental conditions created by different tillage systems. The studies were conducted in a multi-factorial, long-term tillage field experiment. We present the investigation of different sowing technology solutions. Three different sowing carriage loading systems were mounted on the same sowing machines. With these solutions, the same seed lot of the same maize hybrid was sown in several crop years. In addition to investigating the effects of environmental conditions, the effects of each system on emergence were recorded.
Our research results demonstrate that maize emergence under the influence of precision seeder loading systems, which can automatically and instantaneously adapt to environmental conditions, is significantly more uniform and faster than that of mechanical systems.
