This ISTRO-affiliated journal examines the physical, chemical and biological changes in the soil caused by tillage and field traffic.
Manuscripts will be considered on aspects of soil science, physics, technology, mechanization and applied engineering for a sustainable
balance among productivity, environmental quality and profitability. The following are examples of suitable topics within the scope of
the journal of Soil and Tillage Research:- The agricultural and biosystems engineering associated with tillage (including no-tillage,
reduced-tillage and direct drilling), irrigation and drainage, crops and crop rotations, fertilization, rehabilitation of mine spoils
and processes used to modify soils. Soil change effects on establishment and yield of crops, growth of plants and roots, structure and
erosion of soil, cycling of carbon and nutrients, greenhouse gas emissions, leaching, runoff and other processes that affect environmental
quality. Characterization or modeling of tillage and field traffic responses, soil, climate, or topographic effects, soil deformation
processes, tillage tools, traction devices, energy requirements, economics, surface and subsurface water quality effects, tillage effects
on weed, pest and disease control, and their interactions.
