Powdery mildew, along with bacterial necrosis and flower malformation, is one of the most damaging and common diseases found in Andalusian mango plantations. The symptoms are obvious and easily recognized, but if not properly controlled, they can lead to yield losses and, in some cases, affect crop quality.
Kale is a subspecies of brassica that does not develop a head (Brassica oleracea convar. acephala) with various cultivars of different morphology, considered due to its nutritional composition (according to the USDA) as a superfood with high contents of vitamins A and C and calcium and iron, among others.
The almond worm (Capnodis tenebrionis L) has become the main pest affecting almond crops, to the point that it can kill the plant and cause the uprooting of plantations.
Citrus HLB is currently considered the most devastating disease affecting citrus crops worldwide, but it is not yet present in the Mediterranean area. It is a bacterial disease transmitted by two insect vectors: the Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri) and the African citrus psyllid (Trioza erytreae).
The soil-borne fungus Fusarium solani has been reported as a pathogen for strawberry plants. The fungus infects plant roots, causing symptoms of wilting, stunting, and poor root production, with subsequent crop yield loss.
The interest in conserving and achieving better use of a local resource such as the Gordal vine variety has been the basis of a socioeconomic development project that has brought together a public research organization, the Institute for Agricultural and Fisheries Research and Training (IFAPA), the Rural Development Group (GDR) of the Altiplano de Granada, as well as winegrowers and winemakers
The study "Horticulture and Gender 2020" aims to be a useful tool to contribute to improving the quality of life of women farmers by identifying potential needs or shortcomings. It analyzes the current trend based on the results obtained from a similar study conducted in 2006.
The document presents an estimate of the varietal composition of strawberry crops in the province of Huelva in the current 2022-2023 season, expressed as a percentage of plants per variety put into production. It also shows the participation of the main genetic improvement programs.

The development of new cultivation techniques, or the renewal of existing knowledge, are key and strategic elements in the development of Andalusian and Spanish citrus growing.
The Japanese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl) offers extensive possibilities for organic cultivation in the Guadalquivir Valley; however, pest and disease control represents one of the most significant challenges for this production system.
Blueberry cultivation gained momentum in the province of Huelva at the beginning of this century when strawberry growers began to diversify their production with other berries. Furthermore, it is becoming a highly sought-after fruit in Spain and throughout Europe, as more and more consumers are aware of the health benefits this type of product can offer.
Strawberry cultivation, along with other soft fruits, is constantly developing and is a key economic and social driver in the province of Huelva.
Fig cultivation (Ficus carica L.) is one of the traditional Mediterranean crops that is on the rise, not only due to its unique flavor and nutritional value, rich in fiber, potassium, proteins, minerals, and vitamins, but also due to its resilience and adaptation to the conditions of different growing areas.
The compliance of fruits and vegetables with retail specifications, primarily in terms of aesthetic appeal according to consumer standards, is becoming one of the most pressing drivers of Food Losses and Waste (FLW). Nearly one-third of all fruits and vegetables produced in Europe are discarded each year due to their appearance.
Almonds have been gradually introduced into the Guadalquivir Valley under irrigated conditions in recent years as an alternative to other traditional crops with lower profitability. Therefore, there is a significant demand for knowledge regarding the most appropriate irrigation strategies for this crop, especially when water availability is below the crop's optimum.
The almond tree, Prunus dulcis (Mill.) DA Webb, is one of the most important crops in Spain, mostly grown under rainfed conditions and in marginal areas where inputs are very scarce.
During the 2020/2021 crop year, IFAPA characterized the productivity of a group of 12 varieties selected from those currently available on the market. The objective of this study is to study and demonstrate the differences in production-related parameters between the tested varieties.
During the 2020/2021 campaign, a group of 14 varieties selected from those currently available on the market were characterized. The parameters evaluated and presented in this work are related to the production and quality of the different varieties.
