Effect of field pea (Pisum sativum subsp. arvense (L.) Asch.) and pea-oat (Avena sativa L.) biculture cover crops on high tunnel vegetable under organic production system
2022
Overview
In general, adaptation of cover cropping in crop rotation practices to organic tunnels by methods supporting soil health and quality has not yet been fully optimized. Effect of field pea and pea-oat cover crops to soil physicochemical properties and cash crop quality was assessed in an organic high tunnel in southern Poland in 2016–2017, with the following planting sequence: spring cover crops/tomato/romaine lettuce/green bean/iceberg lettuce. The sole pea produced a lower aboveground biomass (3.06 t ha
−1
) than the pea-oat mixture (4.17 t ha
−1
), and the N content in their biomass was 155 kg N ha
−1
and 136 kg N ha
−1
, respectively. The results indicated that a high residue input from cover crops was important for soil organic carbon stock, for retaining plant-available N in organic matter, and for improving soil physical properties, especially wet aggregate stability. We observed an increase in soil pH and the availability of some mineral nutrients in the soil under cover crop treatments, especially Ca, Mg, K, and P. N uptake by the subsequent cash crop significantly (
p
≤ 0.05) increased with pea than with pea-oat biculture, and in the green manure formula than with the mulch treatment. Early spring cover cropping depressed the subsequent tomato yield, but enhanced green bean yield in the second year of cropping.
