Within the Andalusian Agricultural Experimentation Network (RAEA), during the 2017/2018 campaign, IFAPA characterized, both at the agronomic and quality levels, a group of 12 varieties selected from those currently available on the market from different improvement programs.

As part of the Program for the Incorporation of Young People into Agricultural Businesses, this teaching manual, corresponding to "Module VI: Associations and Marketing," addresses aspects related to associative forms in the agricultural sector, such as cooperative societies, agricultural transformation societies, and other types of companies.
Description of the technique for implementing a slow-growing groundcover in an olive grove. Slow-growing annual species used as multi-year groundcover can be more easily planted by sowing them in narrow strips, protected on both sides by strips of faster-growing species, thus achieving better soil protection and less erosion during the first few months.
Description of the infection process and control measures for Rosellinia necatrix, the causative agent of white root rot in avocado crops.
Different types and qualities of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) have been cultivated since ancient times in the Mediterranean Basin for use as a dried legume for human consumption. The term "quality" is subjective and depends on various parameters. This document provides an approximation of quality based on the operator or stakeholder interested in the seed.
Document detailing the production of rosé wines from the Garnacha variety. It shows the results obtained with this variety in four consecutive campaigns (2011-2014).
Due to its diversity and territorial extension, Andalusia is home to numerous minority varieties, offering local viticulture the opportunity to diversify its wine production. Between 2020 and 2022, molecular identification was carried out on 66 specimens from five traditional winemaking areas. Thirteen microsatellite markers were used, including the nine recommended by the OIV.
Due to climate change, significant warming is expected in Southern Europe, with significant increases in average summer temperatures (up by 6°C compared to temperatures at the end of the century) and substantial decreases in spring and summer rainfall. Heat waves, periods of drought, torrential rains, and thunderstorms (extreme events) will occur more frequently (IPCC 2014).
Understanding the importance and rationale of foliar analysis is useful for implementing an appropriate fertilization program. The timing and characteristics of the sample taken are essential for a correct diagnosis, as plant nutritional variation will depend on the species, as well as the age and position of the leaf.

Achieving multiple plant generations per year is one of the methods implemented to accelerate breeding programs and shorten the time to obtain new varieties adapted to changing growing conditions.
Considering the expansion that rapeseed (Brassica napus) cultivation has had in Andalusia, where the cultivated area has increased from approximately 1,000 hectares in 2014 to more than 17,000 hectares in 2017, IFAPA has considered reissuing an update of the "Rapeseed Cultivation Guide" which was carried out in 2009 by researchers from the IFAPA Center in Córdoba.
Continuing the series of projects initiated in the 2007 campaign, this trial network is conducting an agronomic evaluation of the most widely used commercial strawberry varieties in Huelva. These varieties are grown using conventional cultivation systems and planted on two dates: early (October 9) and standard (October 23).
Continuing the series of projects initiated in the 2007 campaign, this trial network is conducting an agronomic evaluation of the most widely used commercial strawberry varieties in Huelva. These varieties are grown using soilless cultivation systems and planted on two dates: early (October 10) and standard (October 22).
Given the importance for farmers to know the optimal time for olive harvesting in order to obtain the highest oil production and the best quality, this paper describes a study carried out on an olive grove in the province of Córdoba, where the oil accumulation behavior of three olive varieties was evaluated: Hojiblanca, Arbequina, and Koroneiki.
Due to the new CAP guidelines, the viability and continued existence of some traditional crops in the Lower Guadalquivir River is being questioned. Therefore, the introduction of alternative crops adapted to the area, capable of achieving high levels of productivity and profitability, is necessary.
Centaurea diluta Aiton, commonly known as broom, is a species of the Compositae family that is increasingly posing problems in herbaceous crops in the Andalusian countryside. Control with post-emergence herbicides is problematic precisely because of its staggered emergence and rapid growth.
Cereals, oilseeds and protein crops
As a result of the efficient implementation of an increasing number of breeding programs, a wide range of strawberry varieties is now available. Given this broad offering, fruit productivity and quality are key parameters for producers and technicians when selecting varieties to grow, with quality being the main parameter for consumers.
