The use of cover crops is widespread practice in organic farming systems. Cover crops can be defined as crops that are usually not grown commercially, and can have a multiple role in crop rotations. The benefit of cover crops has been known since long.

Cover Crops and Cover Crop Mixes
2020The potential nutrient cycling benefits from legumes (e.g. N2-fixation) and the high biomass potential of cereal rye are well known. Further studies are warranted to evaluate bi-culture mixtures and their effects on soil nutrient stratification and microbial enzyme activity because these two properties may be differently expressed (enhanced) by legume ...

Throughout virtually all of the history of agriculture, the nitrogen harvested from cropped soils has been replenished, if it has been replenished at all, by leguminous nitrogen fixation. Although animal wastes, nonsymbiotic fixation, and atmospheric deposition can be significant sources of N, a large fraction of the first can be traced to legume ...

In different parts of the world when traditional management and planting methods are used, ploughing the soils which buries plant residue and leaves, the soil will remain naked and vulnerable to water and wind erosion process. The use of these cultivation methods in heavy sloped areas in the tropics and subtropics, undergoing heavy rainfall, has caused

This collection features four peer-reviewed literature reviews on cover crops in agriculture. The first chapter describes the contribution of cover crops to improving soil health. The chapter reviews their key role e.g. supplying a food source for soil organisms, providing a source of carbon to help build soil organic matter, enhancing nutrient ...
