What is it about?

Evidence from a long-term experiment that clover species and cropping system diversity can increase phosphorus efficiency under organic field crop production. One of the only long-term field crop organic production experiments in the world based on cover crop diversity, rather than relying on unsustainable transfers of compost

Why is it important?

Phosphorus is a finite resource, and sustainable agriculture requires improved understanding of which species and management practices improve efficient use of this key nutrient
