Background Phosphorus (P) is a limiting nutrient in many agroecosystems and costly
fertilizer inputs can cause negative environmental impacts. Cover crops constitute a …

Freezing-thawing period plays an important role in the soil nutrient cycling. The frequency of
freezing-thawing cycles (FTCs) can directly affect the supply of effective soil nutrients, further …

Aims Cover crops play an important role in soil fertility as they can accumulate large
amounts of nutrients. This study aimed at understanding the nutrient uptake capacity of a …

Best management practices that reduce potential phosphorus (P) loss and provide flexibility
in P fertilizer management are needed to help producers protect water quality while …

The use of cover crops and crop residues is a common strategy to mitigate sediment and
nutrient losses from land to water. In cold climates, elevated dissolved P losses can occur …

This study was conducted over the period 2017–2019 in Czesławice (central Lublin region,
Poland). The aim of the present study was to compare chemical soil quality parameters (soil …

Abstract Camelina [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz.] is an industrial oilseed crop in the
Brassicaceae family with multiple uses. Currently, camelina is not used as a cover crop, but …

Introduction Information on the relationship between soil quality and forage yield of legume-
grass mixtures in different ecological regions can guide decision-making to achieve eco …

In northern climates, crop residue and cover crops are potential sources of dissolved
reactive phosphorus (DRP) to runoff; yet, there are few field studies to quantify this. The …
