Utilising differences in rooting depth to design vegetable crop rotations with high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) [PDF]
A number of methods involving plant or soil analysis or modelling have been developed to optimise N fertilization of vegetable crops. The methods aim at improving the NUE of each single crop, but do not really consider the crop rotation as such.
