- Observation Rabbits ate the cover crops.
- Intervention effect Rabbit use was highest in oat and vetch cover crop plots.
- Intervention effect Cover crop presence had a limited effect on rabbit damage.
- Intervention effect Cover crop presence negatively affected grapevine yield.
- Intervention effect Exclosure fences reduced rabbit damage.
- Observation Cover crops attracted rabbits and failed to reduce vineyard damage at higher rabbit numbers.
- Recommendation Adding cover crops may be ineffective for controlling rabbit damage in semi-arid wine regions.
