Corn yield response to winter cover crops: An updated meta-analysis (2017, background): “Grasses and legumes have been successfully tested in Alabama, where winter rye showed neutral effects in subsequent corn biomass yields (Mourtzinis et al. 2015), whereas dense tropical legumes increased yield and N content of the subsequent grain corn (Balkcom and Reeves 2005).”
Conventional and glyphosate-resistant maize yields across plant densities in single- and twin-row configurations (2011, background): “This is common problem for maize production because this crop is typi ally planted early in the spring which dictates an early termination ate that limits the cover crop growing season and subsequent iomass production (Balkcom and Reeves, 2005).”
Summer Cover Crops Fix Nitrogen, Increase Crop Yield, and Improve Soil–Crop Relationships (2012, background): “Similar results of high residue input from SH were reported in other regions (Mansoer et al., 1997; Balkcom and Reeves, 2005; Cherr et al., 2006; Schomberg et al., 2007).”
