Illustrated Guide to Full Mechanization of Wheat Production: Mechanized Tillage and Sowing

The Illustrated Guide to Full Mechanization of Wheat Production: Mechanized Tillage and Sowing, published by China Agricultural Science and Technology Press, introduces mechanized tillage, land preparation, and sowing technologies for wheat production.

For tillage and land preparation, the guide covers straw chopping and returning, rotary tillage, conservation tillage, surface tillage, subsoiling, and combined tillage operations. It also introduces different types of subsoilers and combined tillage implements. For wheat sowing, the guide covers sowing time, seed and fertilizer selection and preparation, seeding and fertilization requirements, soil conditions, and the selection and operation of seeding and fertilizing machinery. It also introduces operation quality monitoring and automatic navigation systems for seeding operations. The guide also covers sowing under conservation tillage, including no-till and minimum-till seeders, different methods for preventing straw blockage, and GNSS-guided root-stubble-avoidance no-till seeding. In addition, it introduces rolling practices for wheat at different growth stages.
