| Abstract | ||
| The location of this work was in the farms of agriculture collage –Abu-Ghraib area west of Baghdad city in silty clay loam soil to study the effect of soil moisture and plowing depth on practical productivity, fuel consumption, total push force, and field efficiency. The treatments included two levels of soil moisture 12 and 17% and three depths of plowing 13, 17 and 21cm. Randomized complete block design with three replications and LSD (0.05) was used to compare the means of treatments at 0.05. The results showed that under 17% soil moisture reported increasing of practical productivity (0.606ha/hr) and field efficiency 82.862% with least fuel consumption 23.136 L/ha, total push force 2234 kg.f. While depth of plowing 13cm reported increasing of practical productivity 0.657 ha/hr and field efficiency 89.754% with least fuel consumption 16.174 L/ha, total push force 1742 kg.f. | ||
