Hairy Vetch and Triticale Cover Crops for N Management in Soils
Over-application of fertilizer to cropland adversely affects both environmental and agricultural ecosystems. This study examined whether planting a legume-based winter cover crop mix offsets fertilizer application via natural nitrogen inputs.

Abstract Relay intercropping legume cover crops with cash crops can protect soil while enhancing nutrient cycling. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of relay‐intercropping hairy vetch (HV; Vicia villosa Roth) with broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) and its subsequent fertilizer effect on sweet corn (Zea mays L.) production.

Suppression of Fusarium Wilt of Watermelon by Soil Amendment with Hairy Vetch [PDF]
Hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) as a soil amendment was evaluated for suppression of Fusarium wilt of watermelon and soil populations of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum in greenhouse, microplot, and field studies. When mixed at 1 or 5% (wt/wt) in a loamy sand soil that was artificially or naturally infested with race 2 of F. oxysporum f. sp.

Abstract Weed management is still a main drawback for the wider adoption of organic cropping systems in the Mid‐South. Holistic cropping management, which involves a combination of cover cropping, tillage practices, and integrating crop and livestock systems, is an option to overcome this challenge.

Effect of vetch wheat mixture and broccoli as preceding crops on organic summer vegetables: on farm trial in western Turkey [PDF]
Organic farming requires the use of practices such as crop rotation, green manure and compost application instead of chemical compounds to enhance farm productivity.

Review of key causes and sources for N2O emmisions and NO3-leaching from organic arable crop rotations [PDF]
. The emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) and leaching of nitrate (NO3) have considerable negative impacts on climate and the environment. Although these environmental burdens are on average less per unit area in organic than in non-organic production, they

Regenerative practices increase crop yield stability in the Upper US Midwest
Abstract Combining regenerative agriculture (RA) practices, such as cover cropping and no‐till, is increasingly promoted as a strategy to enhance soil health and climate resilience. However, their long‐term impacts on crop yield and yield stability remain uncertain.

Cover Crop Mix in Corn Silage Trial [PDF]
While growing corn silage, it is important to plan for soil health management during the season. Cover cropping is one way to prevent soil erosion, maintain and/or improve soil nutrients, improve soil aggregation, prevent nutrient loss from runoff, and ...

Rotylenchulus reniformis (reniform nematode, RN) is an important pathogen in cotton production. Cultural practices such as crop rotation and biofumigation—management of soil pathogens by biocidal compounds from crop residues—may help manage RN.
