“…This crop is an efficient N fixer, accumulating a large amount of N during the growing period (Hartwig and Ammon, 2002;Anugroho et al, 2009a). For example, hairy vetch yearly produced 7.6 -16.7 g N m -2 (Sainju et al, 2006), 10 -15 g N m -2 (Anugroho et al, 2009b), 14.9 g N m -2 (Campiglia et al, 2010a), and 25.8 g N m -2 (Campiglia et al, 2010b) during their growth season, and its cultivation as a cover crop and an organic fertilizer increased the yields of several crops such as corn, cotton, sorghum, potato, and tomato compared with the other cover crops such as ryegrass and subclover, or conventional weedy fallow (Czapar et al, 2002;Sainju et al, 2006;Campiglia et al, 2009;Campiglia et al, 2010aCampiglia et al, , 2010b.…”
