Abstract :In this study, the effects of different tillage system insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(conventional tillage system G: mouldboard plough + cultivator + spike tooth harrow); and conservational tillage system K: chisel + spike tooth harrow);; planting system insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(flat insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(D); and ridge insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(S); planting system); on energy use efficiency of second crop silage maize in Mid-Black Sea Transition Climate Belt were investigated. TTM-813 silage maize seed was used in the experiments. According to the results, the highest specific energy was found in conventional tillage +ridge planting system insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GS, 0.382 MJ kg-1);, whereas, the highest energy output/input ratio was found in conservational tillage + flat planting system insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(KD, 15.61);. It was found that the highest usage ratio in total energy input belongs to fertilizer energy and fuel energy in silage maize production. In conclusion, conservational tillage + flat planting system insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(KD); was the appropriate system as alternative soil tillage system to conventional system was quite practicable for preservation of energy sources and environment for silage maize production in Mid-Black Sea Transition Climate Belt.
