Strip-till

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Agriculture Agricultural machinery
I am not sure of the equivalent I have found for this type of agricultural machinery. I have thought of "maquinaria para labranza en franjas". In wikipedia, the definition reads: Strip-till is a conservation system that uses a minimum tillage. It combines the soil drying and warming benefits of conventional tillage with the soil-protecting advantages of no-till by disturbing only the portion of the soil that is to contain the seed row. This type of tillage is performed with special equipment and can require the farmer to make multiple trips, depending on the strip-till implement used, and field conditions. Each row that has been strip-tilled is usually about eight to ten inches wide. Another benefit of strip-tilling is that the farmer can apply chemicals and fertilizer at the same time as tillage.

I do not have much context in the text I am translating. Thanks a lot.

En estos dos sitios esta la definición, pero en el segundo la completa con *..siembra de un rubro anual o permanente, con cobertura total entre las franjas*

labranza en franjas

No es una maquinaria agrícola sino un método de cultivo. En este método, solo se remueven franjas aisladas del suelo para realizar la siembra, el resto del terreno queda intacto. Generalmente se quita la cubierta de residuos de cosecha en la franja que se prepara por lo que se reduce su efectividad para controlar la erosión del suelo. Se puede combinar con la labranza en surcos para realizar escardas y reducir la cantidad de herbicida en el control de la maleza.
