Minimum culture of the ground? What it comes to aser this? This text intends to explain this technique for the excessively interested pupils of ensinomdio and. Minimum Ocultivo is a not conventional form of preparation of the ground for recebermudas or seeds of one determined culture. It consists of the preparation of the ground eplantio at the same time, in a lesser possible operation number. Dessamaneira, has the minimum revolvimento of the ground. For in such a way, specific hmquinas agricultural to accomplish this technique. In them conjuntode has one implementos that they carry through the arao, the gradeamento, the sulcamento, the fertilization eo plantation. But, which the advantage of this? The lesser amount of passed of tratorrevolve less the ground, undoing, in lesser ratio, the structure of the same emantendo covered it by the residues of the culture that before was installed narea.
In addition, reducing the number of times that the necessary tractor to enter narea that the plantation will be carried through, has fuel economy. This tcnicatambm contemplates the preparation of the ground but in the plantation line (Figure 1). Dessemodo, the lines where it will have the plantation will only have the ground dug. Demaispartes of the land, that is, the space between lineses, will remain with the ground without apassagem of machines and implementos what it favors the maintenance of caractersticasdo alone as, for example, the structure, that are basic for ofavorecimento of the water infiltration that, in turn, will diminish the action deprocessos erosive. Figure 1. Minimum culture with escarificador plough digging only lines up of plantation.

One more time, the doterreno revolvimento of only one part, favors the conservation of the ground. Figure 2. Ground area where it had the preparation (culture) minimum. Notarque in the plantation space between lineses the ground is covered with the culture that antecedeua that it is planted.
