1. Full width tillage that disturbs the entire soil surface and is performed prior to and/or during planting. There is less than 15 percent residue cover after planting, or less than 500 pounds per acre of small grain residue equivalent throughout the critical wind erosion period. Generally involves ploughing or intensive (numerous) tillage trips. Weed control is accomplished with crop protection products and/or row cultivation. This process is known as [ ] (A) Conservation Tillage (B) bunding (C) Conventional Tillage (D) terracing 2. Full-width tillage involving one or more tillage trips which disturbs all of the soil surface and is done prior to and/or during planting. Tillage tools such as chisels, field cultivators, disks, sweeps or blades are used. Weed control is accomplished with crop protection products and/or cultivation. This process is known as [ ] (A) Conservation Tillage (B) bunding (C) Conventional Tillage (D) Mulch Tillage 3. Removal of soil particles from a bank slope primarily due to water action is known as (A) Stream bank erosion (B) Mulching (C) runoff (D) rainfall

4. Fence or barrier constructed of interwoven twigs and branches used to stabilize soil from erosive forces is called as [ ] (A) Stream bank erosion (B) Mulching (C)Wattles (D) rainfall 5. Crop residues absorb energy of raindrops to reduce the soil splash. Plants and close growing crops minimize raindrop impact as well as hold the soil together and act a filter. They also ____________ the amount of runoff as do subsurface drainage system. [ ] (A) reduce (B) No action (C) zero (D) increases 6. Universal soil loss is used for the calculation of (A) average annual soil loss in tons per acre per year; (C) rainfall (D) runoff loss

7. __________ is a selective process, removing the fine silt, clay, and organic matter at a much faster rate than coarser sands. This can result in poorer soil tillage and lower nutrient- and water-holding capacity if nothing is done about the situation [ ] (A) Evaporation (B) Transpiration (C) Soil Erosion (D) Evapotranspiration 8. ___________ is a type of protective covering such as sawdust, compost, burlap, shredded wood or paper strips used on the ground to reduce water evaporation, control weeds, enrich the soil.[ ] A) Mulching (B) Transpiration (C) Soil Erosion (D) Evapotranspiration
