Definition from
IFIC Foundation:
A methodology of crop production in which the farmer avoids mechanical cultivation (i.e., only one pass over the field). The plant residue remaining on the field’s surface helps to control weeds and reduce soil erosion, but it also provides sites for insects to shelter and reproduce, leading to a need for increased insect control.
Example sentences:
No-till farming, as its name indicates, does away with the mechanical churning of the soil between crops. Rather than being plowed under, agricultural wastes are left on top of the soil, where they decompose more slowly. (World Resources Institute)
The scientists found that certain activities, such as switching to no-till farming, may also increase crop yields while helping the environment. (U.S. Department of Agriculture's ARS)
Conventional tillage controls weed growth by plowing and cultivating, but no-till farming selectively uses herbicides to kill weeds and the remains of the previous crop. No-till farming is one of several primitive farming methods revived as conservation measures in the 20th century. (answers.com)

нулева обработка на почвата
Definition from
agrosaveti:
Терминът „No-till”, в превод от английски означава – „без оран”. Технологията „No-till” изключва не само оранта, но също така и други видове механична обработка на почвата. Засяването се прави върху останалите на повърхността остатъци от предходната култура в необработената почвата.<br /><br />Това е много важна особеност на тази технология – не се нарушава структурата на почвата преди засаждане.
Example sentences:
No-till - технология, при която семената се засяват в почва, която не се подлага на обработка, а растителните остатъци от предишната реколта остават на повърхността на почвата. (agrosaveti)
Растителните остатъци върху почвената повърхност - са и една от най-важните отличителни черти на технологията „No-till”. И колкото по-дълго - толкова по-добре. В крайна сметка, именно те позволяват да се запази влагата в почвата и я защитават от ерозия (agrosaveti)
