The cultivation of green manure crops provide various beneficial influences on agricultural systems. However, there have been few studies on the use of green manure crops on upland field in Korea. The purpose of this study is the selection of green manure crop species suitable for subsequent upland crops. For this study, two leguminous green manure crops and four graminaceous crops were used as following: (1) hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth), (2) crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum), (3) barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), (4) rye (Secale cereale L.), (5) triticale (Triticosecale wittmack), (6) wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Plant-available nitrogen (PAN) release from each green manure crops was estimated using PAN prediction equation. Graminaceous green manure crops produced more biomass (dry plant matter) up to 1.5 times than leguminous crops. However, PAN % was much higher in leguminous crops due to their high nitrogen content (2.4 ～ 4.4%). In late may, hairy vetch was estimated to provide PAN as much as 11kg/10a which meet nitrogen need for nearly all (except waxy corn) upland crops used in this study. However, PAN from crimson clover and graminaceous green manure crops was much lower mainly due to low biomass production and low nitrogen content, respectively. Overall, hairy vetch could be most appropriate green manure crop for upland crop cultivation in Korea.
