Adapting Tillage System Technology At Rain Sector In SudanA Study of Sudanese Arab Company Experience For Agriculture In Blue Nile [ACDI]
Abstract
The rained area of agricultural land in Sudan, constitute about 89% of the cultivated land. The production in this sector depends on traditional systems which limit agricultural land and led to low productivity. So zerotillage system was introduced to raise productivity and reduce cost. This new system met boom in agricultural productivity of all crops grown equivalent to 4-5 times the productivity achieved by the traditional systems. But there is obstacles facing Zero-tillage system including drought and late rains, so the researcher has recommended conducting deep studies to see the possibility of harmonizing between this system and tillage system, for the proper usage of Rosaries dam water which well be elevated in the two coming years.
