Effects of green manure crops on short-term nitrogen availability in organic sweet corn systems : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Soil Science [PDF]
, 2000 In the Gisborne Region of New Zealand (NZ) many organic sweet corn growers use a range of winter green manure crops as a means of maintaining and improving soil fertility, particularly the availability of soil N.

Wireworm Control using Fodder Rape and Mustard – evaluating the use of brassica green manures for the control of wireworm (Agriotes spp.) in organic crops [PDF]
, 2002 In a field experiment at ADAS Pwllpeiran in 2001, brassica green manures were grown for 6 weeks and dug in before planting King Edward potatoes, to see if they suppressed wireworm in the crop.

Use of green manure in organic farming
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2019 Green manure is an important source of replenishment the missing amount of organic and mineral fertilizers for modern agricultural enterprises. Therefore, the aim of the study was to identify the role of green manure crops in increasing soil fertility ...

Azole antifungal contaminants disrupt mycorrhizal function and risk agricultural sustainability
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Global food production is increasingly threatened by soil degradation, climate change and the rising costs of synthetic fertilisers. Circular agriculture, which promotes resource reuse, is a promising solution, but using treated wastewater and biosolids in farming introduces risks from emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical residues.

Der kurzfristige Einfluss von drei Zwischenfruchtarten und zwei verschiedenen Bodenbearbeitungen auf Frühjahrs-NO3-N des Bodens und Ertrag der Hauptfrucht Hafer [PDF]
, 2015 Reduced tillage and green manures may be capable to further improve organic crop production systems. However, it is presumed that under organic farming conditions a lower intensity of soil tillage may reduce nitrogen (N) availability and increase weed ...
