abstract = "In agricultural production, sowing is one of the most important agro-technical
operations that influence the quality of the product and yield. The crops sowing quality, including wheat, depends on properly prepared soil, that is, on the quality of soil cultivation.
However, despite well-executed soil cultivation, satisfactory results cannot always be achieved if
sowing is not done in an appropriate manner. The achieved depth of sowing affects the speed of
sprouting, rooting, resistance of plants to low temperature and drought, intensity of budding,
growth and development, and achieving the highest yield in certain conditions. In unfavorable
agro-technical conditions, and especially in the conditions of dry farming, optimal conditions for
high-quality sowing often cannot be ensured by applying the conventional method. Therefore,
new cultivation and sowing systems are being applied in order to perform high-quality sowing
in time. During the experiment, the influences of the tillage system and sowing method on the
sowing depth and the depth of the formation of the tillering nodes were registered. The results
of two-year study are given, where four methods of tillage were applied, namely conventional
tillage at depths of up to 25 cm and three reduced tillage methods at different depths. Reduced cultivation with a discc harrrow was done at a depths between 8 and 12 cm, and reduced
cultivation with rototiller was done at depths of 5-10 cm and 10-15 cm. During the tests, the
sowing depth and the depths of the tillering nodes were determined by direct measuring of the
knots positions of the analyzed plants. Furthermore, it was verified that depth of the knot
has a significant effect on the resistance of wheat to low temperatures during winter and lack
of moisture during summer droughts. Achieved results enable further optimization of applied
cultivation and sowing systems.",
