ResumoPurpose: The present research aims to evaluate the biomass production and nutrient uptake by different cover crops, as well as to verify the effects of straw on bean productivity. Method: The experimental design was completely randomized, consisting of sowing beans on straw four cover crops (Crotalaria ochroleuca, Pigeon pea, Mucuna gray and Lab-lab) + control, with five replications. Results and conclusion: The Pigeon pea species has great potential for dry matter production and ability to absorb and accumulate phosphorus in the leaves in full bloom. The straw of the species Crotalaria ochroleuca, Pigeon pea and Mucuna cinza contributed significantly to the productivity of common bean cultivated in succession, as well as represent an alternative to reduce the dependence on synthetic fertilizers and increase the sustainability of agricultural systems. Implications of the research: The search for maintaining or increasing crop production through the adoption of conservation practices with emphasis on the cultivation of cover crop species is emphasized as an efficient strategy for nutrient cycling, improving soil health and increasing productivity with sustainability assumptions. Originality/value: The results obtained in this study are relevant to the scientific community, contributing to the training of educators and development of students, especially in the area of agricultural and environmental sciences, serving as a scientific basis for the regional technological process.
