Cover crops affect the partial nitrogen balance in a maize-forage cropping system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Part of the nitrogen (N) fertilizer applied to crops is lost to the environment, contributing to global warming, eutrophication, and groundwater contamination. However, low N supply stimulates soil organic N turnover and carbon (C) loss, since the soil N/
