Effects of Conventional Tillage on Some Soil Properties, Root Growth and Seed Emergence

The experiment work was carried out at Akure, latitude 7, 5u2019 and longitude 5, 10u2019 E in the rain forest zone of Nigeria on soil type classified as alfisol. Maize was used as the indicator crop. Soil parameters measured included bulk density, moisture retention, soil temperature, porosity aggregate stability and soil shear strength while crop parameters measured include root length and number of main roots, and crop emergence
