【 摘 要 】

Conventional systems characterized by intensive tilling has negative effects on soil, water and air quality, biodiversity and landscape. Soil degradation due to erosion and compaction processes is probably the most important environmental problem caused by conventional agriculture. On the other hand, with conservation systems the soil is protected from wind and water erosion, the soil aggregates, organic matter and fertility level increase and soil compaction are reduced. This paper specify the important environmental problems caused by conventional technologies and the main arguments for adoption of conservation tillage systems.
