Winter legume cover crop with adequate nitrogen fertilization enhance dryland maize yield and water-use efficiency

Winter cover crops can provide multiple ecosystem services but can reduce succeeding maize (Zea mays L.) yield and water-use efficiency (WUE) by depleting soil water compared with no cover crop in arid and semi-arid regions. We examined the impacts of winter cover crops (lentil [Lens culinaris L.],...
