Sažetak
On heavy soils, six different soil tillage methods in spring wheat production were tested. Five tillage methods were of reduced type and sixth conventional was used as control. The aim of testing was to compare energy and labour requirements of each tillage method and its influence on yield. Results indicated that conventional method is one of the greater but not the greatest energy consumer. The greatest energy consumers are methods with chisel plough and power harrow and chisel plough and rotary cultivator. But mentioned methods although the greatest energy consumers are concurrent to conventional tillage method because they are up to 35 % more effective in saving labour requirements. The best results achieved tillage method with two passes of multitiller, which enable up to 40 % energy and up to 80 % labour requirement savings.
