Nitrogen content of pea-based cover crop mixtures and subsequent organic corn yield

Stephanie Lavergne et al.

Summary: Organic growers heavily rely on manure additions to meet corn nitrogen needs, but using cover crop mixtures can also effectively increase corn yield. In addition, applying poultry manure can significantly boost corn yield, providing a potential solution to the high cost of fertilization.

Using fall-seeded cover crop mixtures to enhance agroecosystem services: A review

Stephanie Lavergne et al.

Summary: The research explores the effectiveness of cover crop mixtures in providing agroecosystem services, with different types of mixtures showing varying impacts on weed suppression, nitrogen cycling, soil organic carbon storage, crop yield, and other services. Differences in functional groups within the mixtures may lead to trade-offs among different agroecosystem services.
