No till/strip tillage

This method is moderately effective with a low cost as part of crop planting, with a low level of maintenance but a short longevity (based on use during seasonal crop production).

The method has significant co-benefits when used in combination with other measures to improve soil quality or reduce wind erosion and is easy to implement as part of field preparation.

The method has a moderate potential for combination with other methods.

May require changes to farm implements used for planting.
