Demonstration of Tied Ridges and Plantings Method on Soil Moisture and Grain Yield of Maize in Dry Land Area of Sankura Woreda, SNNPR, Ethiopia
Abstract: Tied ridging is a useful technique, especially on terrain with slopes of 3% to 4% or less. On steeper slopes, adding terrace can increase crop yields by prolonging the time it takes for water to percolate into the soil. Purpose of the study was to show the effects of the open end linked ridges with furrow planting technique on the soil's moisture content and the grain production of the maize …
