Predicting leaching of residual soil nitrate-nitrogen (NO 3 -N) in wet climates is important for reducing risks of groundwater contamination and conserving soil N. The goal of this research was to determine the potential to use easily measurable or readily available soilclimatic-plant data that could be put into simple computer models and used to predict NO 3  leaching under various management systems. Two computer programs were compared for their potential to predict monthly NO 3 -N leaching losses in western Oregon vegetable systems with or without cover crops. The models were a statistical multiple linear regression (MLR) model and the commercially available Nitrate Leaching and Economical Analysis Package model (NLEAP 1.13). The best MLR model found using stepwise regression to predict annual leachate NO 3 -N had four independent variables (log transformed fall soil NO 3 -N, leachate volume, summer crop N uptake, and N fertilizer rate) ( P  &lt; 0.001,  R  2  = 0.57). Comparisons were made between NLEAP and field data for mass of NO 3 -N leached between the months of September and May from 1992 to 1997. Predictions with NLEAP showed greater correlation to observed data during high-rainfall years compared to dry or averagerainfall years. The model was found to be sensitive to yield estimates, but vegetation management choices were limiting for vegetable crops and for systems that included a cover crop.
