Abstract
Cover crops performed better in more fertile soils of
Ukraine as compared to low SOM MI soils.
• Greater above- and below-ground biomass in Ukrainian
sites was associated with greater soil POM levels.
• At topographical depressions in UA sites POM was higher
under WK than WH system.
• Cover crops interfered with corn and led to lower corn
yields in UA sites, likely due to combined effect of low
moisture availability and too early cover crop planting.
