Winter cover crops increased nitrogen availability and efficient use during eight years of intensive organic vegetable production.
Efficient use of nitrogen (N) is essential to protect water quality in high-input organic vegetable production systems, but little is known about the long-term effects of organic management on N mass balances. We measured soil N and tabulated N inputs (organic fertilizers, compost, irrigation water,...
