    Figure 1

    Conceptual model of moving from a bare soil orchard to one with cover crops, and how a focus on flowers, aboveground biomass, or roots influences the effects of cover crops in almond orchard systems, as well as how the main management decisions in the orchard will change based on which part of the cover crop is the focus.

    Figure 2

    Cover crop growth over the winter. Photos taken in November, February, March, and May (top to bottom), showing emergence, growth stage during almond bloom, peak growth, and post-termination condition of an annual winter cover crop composed of functionally diverse species (a brassica, a grass, and a legume).
