The initial model (41 pathways) explored the various direct and indirect relationships between cover crop quantity and quality measurements, soil properties, and dry bean population and yield. Our refined model suggests cover crop C/N ratio and the time from cover crop incorporation to dry bean planting were indirectly linked to yield through soil N availability at the time of dry bean planting and/or dry bean population.
