Description of the measure
Reduced tillage improves the soil structure then soils are more resilient to expected climate projections
Comments on sustainability
More resilient soils and enhanced capacity for storing water and reducing leaching. Less emissions due to fuel consumption savings, better soil performance. Technically and socioeconomic, the measure is neutral in the midterm, but needs initial investements.
