Winter Wheat Response to Winter Pea Cover Crop Under Dryland Cropping

Abstract

AbstractCover cropping with legumes such as winter peas under dryland winter wheat production systems has several benefits that could improve the resiliency of production systems and agroecosystem services. This article demonstrates the use of winter pea cover crops to increase winter wheat yields in the intermediate (12–16 inch) rainfall zone and to improve drought resiliency.
