Anabela Cachada	2017	NoTillAgri-Estarreja: The effect of No-Tillage farming on preserving soil and plants health in an area affected by groundwater contamination	Trifolium sp Zea mays plant-soil mesocosm plant physiological stress soil ecology soil biochemical activity	Agriculture is an important sector in Estarreja region, in terms of landscape occupation and socio-economic input. However, due to the environmental impacts of the industrial sector and natural environmental change, local resources such as groundwater are known to be degraded and contaminated. Particularly, a certain level of soil and water salinization has been observed. Therefore, there is an arising demand for developing new farming practices for maintaining healthy and productive terrestrial ecosystems, together with efficient use of local resources. The main objective of this project is to suggest a farming practice (No-tillage) which contribute to environmental and ecological conservation and preservation of soil quality. Thus, the efficiency of No-tillage will be discussed through an experimental design for testing effects on farm soil parameters, soil retention function and crops production. In addition, a comparative study between the present farming practice and the proposed one will be attained.	OHM Estarreja	Afficher
