Small-scale conservation tillage-ripping of soil using oxen-drawn
The form of conservation agriculture described in this technology involves the use of ox-drawn ploughs, modified to rip the soil. The aim of ripping is to increase water infiltration and reduce runoff. In contrast to conventional tillage, the soil is not inverted, minimising water loss and improving soil productivity, as well as yields.
