Abstract One of the principle reasons why farmers plough the soil is to control weeds. Tillage is easy and weed control can be complete. Weed control without tillage is more complicated and requires much more knowledge. A lot of farmers find controlling weeds in the first seasons of conversion from conventional agriculture to conservation agriculture (CA) to be very difficult. This can lead to a rejection of the technology.
