This study, based on a literature review and simulations, shows the
efficiency of cover crops at catching nitrate in most agriculture
situations. It also analyzes both the negative impacts they can
have and the ecosystem services they can provide. The introduction
of a cover crop between two main crops helps catch the soil mineral
nitrogen before the period of drainage and consequently reduces
nitrate leaching and nitrate concentration in the drainage water.
This study allows quantifying the efficiency of cover crops at
catching nitrate and optimizing their implantation conditions over
a large range of French pedoclimatic conditions. The presence of
high nitrate levels in surface and ground waters, due to excessive
nitrogen fertilization and natural production of nitrate by soil
organic matter mineralization, is a double challenge for public
health and environment protection.
