Observational analysis reveals similar yield effects in winter wheat from tillage systems, indicating potential challenges in weed suppression.

Winter wheat yield was comparable at 6.55 t ha−1 for conventional tillage and 6.46 t ha−1 for no-tillage, highlighting a negligible difference.
Moderate mineral fertilization was applied in both tillage systems to assess its impact on yield and weed suppression as the experiment included three crop rotations.
The total dry matter of weeds was 35.4 t ha−1 in conventional tillage and 38.8 t ha−1 in no-tillage, demonstrating varying weed biomass across systems.
Uneven rainfall during the study period potentially contributed to weed proliferation, especially in the case of dicotyledonous species.

CHEŢAN et al. (2025) studied this question.
