Undersowing legume crops for green manuring of lettuce

Biological Agriculture & Horticulture, 2003
The objective of this experiment was to investigate the potential of several species of undersown legume crops to deplete soil nitrate and to accumulate nitrogen. A further objective was to measure the effects of the legume crops as a green manure for a succeeding early lettuce crop.
