In organic agriculture, soil fertility is essential for harvesting high quality crop yields. Plant nutrient cycles should be kept short and as closed as possible. Therefore, it is important to have sustainable growing systems that have rotations with appropriate crops and cover crops. In organic farming green manures and cattle manure are also used to ensure fertile and biologically active soil and to enhance biodiversity. Green manures offer supporting services, such as nutrient cycling, promotion of beneficial insects for pest control and soil formation. Also the catch crops on winter period are essential to reduce nutrient leaching (Stark and Porter, 2005). Growing system does not only influence the soil fertility, but through that also the quality... |

The aim of present study was to find out the influence of green manures as winter cover crops and their combination with composted cattle manure on metabolomic fingerprinting and microbiological quality of winter wheat in a crop rotation experiment in three organic systems (ORG 0, ORG 1, ORG 2) at the Estonian University of Life Sciences in 2012. |
