MINIMUM TILLAGE AND NO-TILLAGE UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF DRY STEPPE ZONE

The purpose of this research is efficiency determination of the minimum tillage and no-tillage of camelina in the dry steppe zone of Northern Kazakhstan. Field study was made in four-course crop rotation on darkchestnut soils. For the first time under agroecological conditions of dry steppe zone of Northern Kazakhstan it is established that the minimum tillage and no-tillage have advantage over traditional tillage according to the collection of water and organic substance, intensity of biological processes, preservation of soil fertility. The proved increase in productivity of crops using minimum tillage and no-tillage in comparison to traditional tillage is established.
