The use of smother crops or cover crop residue to suppress weed growth in agriculture is not a recent innovation; yet, only recently have smother, or cover crops, received considerable attention. The need to develop increasingly integrated pest management and sustainable food production systems has encouraged a greater interest to thoroughly evaluate effective utilization of cover crops in agricultural systems. In addition to providing a measure of weed control through physical obstruction and/or biochemical suppression, cover crops provide numerous environmental benefits that can promote long-term viability of farm lands (Jordan et al. 1999; Phatak et al. 2002; Yenish et al. 1996). Implementation of cover crops can reduce soil erosion, reduce runoff and improve water availability, improve soil structure, enhance soil organic matter, and increase diversity of soil biota (Bugg and Dutcher 1989; Reeves 1994; Wang et al. 2002a). These soil improvements, along with weed suppression capabilities, have made cover crops ideally suited for use in current and future sustainable agronomic systems.
