Default Leafmould and green manure

Hi,

I'm still new to allotment gardening, and on my travels around the
internet, I came across this:
http://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/todo...g_gard_now.php
A little before half way down the page, there's a picture of three beds
treated in different ways. It seems that the one which has been
leafmoulded (if that's the word) is doing brilliantly, but the one on
which green manure has been used seems to be doing even worse than the
one left to its own devices. Could that really be the case? If so, why
use green manure?

Any ideas would be welcome
Nir
