Production of crops is directly connected with tillage systems and this tillage system is also helpful for reduction of cost of crop production. Therefore, cropping system may be regulated with the changes of tillage operations.
Now-a-days, zero tillage, minimum tillage, no-tillage paira/utera system, stubble-mulch tillage etc. are in vogue, and as a result, higher crop-production is possible, with low cost, though tillage practices differ from place-to-place and crop-to-crop.
