Question: Which of the following statements is accurate regarding conservation tillage? Need Assignment Help? Group of answer choices Conservation tillage methods conserve organic residues by collecting them from the soil surface ahead of tillage, rather than mixing them with soil. One of the benefits of conservation tillage is that the water-holding capacity of the soil is generally increased. One of the problems with conservation tillage is that without some stirring of the soil, over several years the soil surface tends to seal and reduce water infiltration. With no-tillage, approximately 10 to 20% of the soil surface remains covered with organic residues.
