Abstract
Minimum does not refer to a particular set of practices but rather to practices consistent with the crop, the soil and climate. The might be no -till where a crop is planted in the residue of the old crop without seedbed preparation, or it might be a tillage system that would still retain plowing as a primary tillage method. The term reduced will be used in this discussion rather than minimum tillage .
