| Resumo: |
Cover crops are an essential strategy in organic and low input arable and vegetable production, especially regarding weed reduction and N use efficiency, but their establishment and development can be unstable. A viable option to enhance and stabilise the agroecosystem services provided by cover crops is to sow mixtures of species having different functionality. Such mixtures have been reported to increase productivity, stability, resilience and resource use efficiency of cover crop communities. Therefore, our hypothesis is that weed reduction can also be improved by cover crops mixtures. However, it is not yet clear how diversity drives these mechanisms in arable and vegetable systems in Mediterranean climates.
