How Diversified Cropping Systems Restore Soil Function in Sandy Soils?
Diversified crop and livestock systems can rebuild soil physical function in sandy soils, especially below the surface.

Can Winter Cover Crops Improve Soil Nitrogen Cycling?
Winter cover crops improved soil nitrogen cycling and retention, but their benefits were more evident in soil function than yield.
