Unfortunately, living mulches compete for nutrients and water with the main crop, [8] and this can reduce yields. For example, Elkins et al. (1983) examined the use of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea), smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis), and orchargrass (Dactylis glomerata) as living mulches.
Bromus comes from a Greek word for a type of oat, and tectorum comes from tector which means overlaying and tectum which means roof. [2] Bromus tectorum is a winter annual grass native to Eurasia usually germinating in autumn, overwintering as a seedling, then flowering in the spring or early summer. [9]
