Summary/Abstract: Reduction of organic matter, soil degradation, water and air pollution, intensification of water and wind erosion and low levels of soil fertility are a small part of the negative effects on the environment as a result of the application of incorrect agricultural practices. Socio-economic changes in the industry have led to the development of new systems in agriculture. One of the modern treatments aimed at preserving the soil resource is the so-called conservation agriculture, also known as No till technology, zero tillage or unploughed technology.
