  - 'Winter cover crops (CCs) provide substantial agronomic and environmental benefits,
    yet their influence on nitrogen (N) fertilization requirements and yield outcomes
    for subsequent crops remains underexplored. This study investigates the economic
    optimal nitrogen rates (EONRs) and corresponding yield effects for first (silage
    maize or sugar beet) and second (winter wheat) succeeding crops following CCs.
    Four CC species from different functional groups were compared to a bare fallow
    control on contrasting sandy and loamy soils across four German field sites over
    two consecutive cropping sequences. Results revealed opposing effects: reduced
    EONR and increased N use efficiency on sandy soils in silage maize sequences,
    particularly following oil radish and rye CCs, but increased EONR on loamy soils
    for sugar beet sequences, with vetch CC showing the most favourable outcomes.
    Yield impacts varied by CC type and soil, with oil radish consistently enhancing
    yields across sites. However, CC effects on EONR were not correlated with pre-winter
    N uptake in CC biomass, challenging simple N budgeting practices. Environmental
    analysis highlighted potential greenhouse gas savings via reduced fertilizer inputs
    on sandy soils but increased upstream emissions on loamy sites. These findings
    emphasize the need for site-specific CC selection to balance economic and environmental
    benefits, with oil radish and vetch emerging as optimal choices in our trials
    for sandy and loamy soils, respectively.@eng'
