Sažetak
Field experiment with 6 soil tillage systems was set up on Stagnosol in Central Croatia in 1994. Applied tillage systems were: BF (Black fallow) – ploughing up and down the slope to the depth of 30 cm, PUDS - ploughing to the depth of 30 cm, disking, seedbed preparation, sowing up and down the slope, NT (No tillage) – sowing into dead mulch up and down the slope, PAS - the same as PUDS but across the slope, VDPAS - very deep ploughing across the slope to the depth of 50 cm every 4th year, SSPAS – subsoiling across the slope to the depth of 60 cm every 4th year. On VDPAS and SSPAS ploughing, disking, seedbed preparation and sowing were carried out across the slope. 13 years after experiment establishment, oil seed rape was cover crop (season 2006/07). In 2007 soil resistance, bulk density and soil water content data were collected in order to detect effects of different soil tillage systems on soil compaction. Data were obtained at 4 depths in different time intervals during vegetation period. Statistical data evaluation showed significant differences in soil resistance between all tillage systems at all depths. Soil resistance varied at depth 0-10 cm from 0.46 to 2.82 MPa, at depth 10-20 cm from 0.85 to 3.85 MPa, at depth 20-30 cm from 1.02 to 5.01 and at depth 30-40 cm from 1.21 to 5.31 MPa. Bulk density values at all depths of all tillage systems varied from 1.46 to 1.73 g cm-3. Soil water content during research period varied from 27 to 43 %. It can be concluded that climate conditions differently affected soil resistance at different tillage practice.
