The effect of cover crops on soil structure and the subsequent yield of sugar beet

Pressure is mounting on policy makers and farmers to improve the sustainability of UK Agriculture. One area of improvement surrounds possible changes within crop rotations to improve soil health in tandem with increasing crop yield. The success of a cash crop, is widely determined by the structure...
