1. Winter Annual Legume Cover Crops in a Wheat Grain Sorghum Rotation in South Central Kansas

Winter annual legumes in humid regions ofthe country can have a positive effect on subsequent corn (Zea mays) and grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) crops, mainly through N contribution of the legume and. in some cases, soil improvement. However, water use by the cover crop in drier regions has the potential to reduce yields in subsequent crops. This study was initiated in south-central Kansas to look at the agronomic implications of adding a winter annual legume cover crop to a winter wheat (Triticum...
