Answer:

■No-till farming (also called zero tillage or direct drilling) is a way of growing crops or pasture from year to year without disturbing the soil through tillage.

■No-till is an agricultural technique which increases the amount of water that infiltrates into the soil, the soil's retention of organic matter and its cycling of nutrients.

■In many agricultural regions, it can reduce or eliminate soil erosion. It increases the amount and variety of life in and on the soil, including disease-causing organisms and disease organisms.

■The most powerful benefit of no-tillage is improvement in soil biological fertility, making soils more resilient.

■ Farm operations are made much more efficient, particularly improved time of sowing and better trafficability of farm operations.

qwerty1483: how to say simply *permanent wilting point*

asmitabhoir48: Permanent wilting point (PWP) or wilting point (WP) is defined as the minimal amount of water in the soil that the plant requires not to wilt. If the soil water content decreases to this or any lower point a plant wilts and can no longer recover its turgidity when placed in a saturated atmosphere for 12 hours.
