Part 2 presents typical data and interpretations for each soil series in Alberta. The interpretations were made by applying the guidelines in Part 1, and checking the results against experience
The Effect of Cover Crop Species on Growth and Yield Response of Tree Seedlings to Fertiliser and Soil Moisture on Reclaimed Sites
Resource
Comparatively the suppressive effect of barley was higher than that of oats probably due to a combination of vigorous growth and possible allelopathic effects.
