Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum/Fagopyrum sagittatum)

Creator:: Oregon State University. Extension Service, Sattell, Robert, Dick, Richard, Karow, Russell S., and McGrath, Daniel M. (Daniel Morton)
Abstract:: Buckwheat is not likely to increase soil organic matter content much because dry matter production is relatively low and tissues are succulent and decompose very rapidly when incorporated. However, buckwheat can improve short-term soil tilth and has been used to prepare fields for transplants.

Cover crop dry matter and nitrogen accumulation in Western Oregon

Creator:: Sattell, Robert, Buford, Thomas, Murray, Helene, Dick, Richard, McGrath, Daniel M. (Daniel Morton), and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Cover crop selection and management depend on many factors, among them the cover crop’s ability to accumulate dry matter (i.e., residues) and nitrogen (N). Dry matter provides energy for soil organisms, contributes to soil organic matter, improves tilth, and acts as a sink for nutrients.

Rapeseed (Brassica campestris/Brassica napus)

Creator:: Sattell, Robert, Dick, Richard, Ingham, Russ, Karow, Russell S., Kaufman, Diane, McGrath, Daniel M. (Daniel Morton), and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Rapeseed is grown for its oil and meal, and as a cover crop. Rapid fall growth captures part of the available soil nitrogen, which otherwise might be lost to leaching, and provides good ground cover over winter.

Subterranean clovers (Trifolium subterraneum)

Creator:: Sattell, Robert, Dick, Richard, Hemphill, Delbert D., McGrath, Daniel M. (Daniel Morton), and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Subclovers are used for forage and hay and have been used successfully in Oregon as fall-planted and relay interplanted cover crops in annual rotations. They are capable of accumulating substantial amounts of N, a portion of which is available to the following crop. Rapid growth suppresses weeds in spring.

Sudangrass and sorghum-sudangrass hybrids (Sorghum bicolor L.)

Creator:: Sattell, Robert, Dick, Richard, Ingham, Russ, Karow, Russell S., McGrath, Daniel M. (Daniel Morton), and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Sudangrass and sorghum sudangrass crosses are used as warm season cover crops, forage, and silage. When used as a cover crop, their fibrous roots and organic matter contributions improve soil structure; and their rapid, dense growth suppresses weeds.
