This research was carried out at Foggia (southern Italy) on a silty-clay soil (Typic Chromoxererts) in an experimental field characterized by hot-arid summers, cold winters and scanty and sporadic rains.Roots distribution, agronomic parameters and nitrogen balance were recorded at harvest of broad beans after durum wheat in a two-year rotation. Four different tillage methods (A — traditional mouldboard ploughing; B — ripper subsoiling; C — skim ploughing; D — minimum tillage) and three N rates (0, 50, 100 kg N ha−1 only to wheat) were used. Nitrogen balance in selected "treatment" was done by comparing soil mineral nitrogen variations (N-NO3 + exchangeable N-NH4), in all experimental plots, with nitrogen distribution within broad bean plant organs. The findings show a strong interaction between tillage methods and N rates as affected by the modifications of water infiltration, temperature gradients, organic carbon turnover and soil nitrogen transport and transformations.
