    North Carolina State University, Department of Crop & Soil Sciences, Raleigh, NC, U.S.A.
    Intensive tillage in flue-cured tobacco production contributes to soil erosion and reduced water-holding capacity of soils. Conservation tillage minimizes soil disturbance by planting a crop directly into biomass residue of overwintered cover crop...
