In olive cultivation, the use of plant covers has been implemented and extended as a cultural practice in the last decade.
In 2009, the regulations for the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) Aloreña de Málaga Olive were approved, the first to achieve this distinction in Spain. Its production is located in the southeast of the province of Málaga. The Aloreña table olive is a brine-cured olive that may be fully or partially fermented and preserved with salt, organic acids, and spices.
In Andalusia, olive groves with slopes greater than 20 represent 26.8 of the total olive grove area, including areas with limited land use due to a combination of factors such as altitude and slope, and which are unprofitable, leading to a high risk of abandonment for this crop in Andalusia.
The table olive sector in Spain has grown in recent years, doubling its production in the last decade, reaching figures exceeding 800,000 tons. Andalusian table olive production is particularly notable, accounting for around 80% of Spanish production, and within this, the province of Seville accounts for 58% of national production.
Farm size, fragmentation, and dispersion affect profitability. Despite this, there are no studies that analyze these variables together; virtually all of them focus on farm size. The optimal proportion of fixed costs for machinery used in farm management can only be achieved when farms reach a certain minimum size. This fact is analyzed through the edge effect.
This paper aims to analyze the factors that have influenced the adoption of the PDO in the olive industry of Andalusia, as well as the influence of this adoption on the industrial and commercial practices implemented within the industry. This is intended to assist in the design of public policies that strengthen the dissemination of the PDO in the sector.
This work evaluates different sowing doses of Sinapis alba and the appropriate fertilization strategies to maximize plant development and glucosinolate content of this species, so that it is effective when used as a plant cover for biofumigation.
The Andalusian Rural Development Program 2014-2020 has included Measure 10 "Agri-Environment and Climate" and a series of submeasures; specifically, Submeasure 10.1.
The Training Program consists of four generic modules, common to all productive areas. The remaining four modules are specific to each productive area and focus on specific technical aspects of agricultural and livestock production. Module 1, Agricultural Business, addresses general aspects related to farm management.
This study shows the genetic and environmental variability in olive flowering and flower quality in Andalusia. It also highlights the potential effect of temperature on these crucial parameters for annual production.
This paper presents the results of a field trial in an olive grove in which three herbicide treatments were applied to control weeds in an established Brachypodium distachyon plant cover.
This paper shows the results of a study in which, for 4 years, from 2003 to 2006, the productive response of different types of olive groves to the application of iron chelates or Fe EDDHA was evaluated.
This paper presents the results of several experiments in which different disinfectant products were applied through irrigation systems with the aim of reducing or eliminating the presence of Verticillium dahliae in irrigation water.
This work aims to evaluate the effect of herbicide control of dicotyledonous species that infest and compete with the vegetation cover of Brachypodium distachyon in an olive grove.
This document presents the results of a field trial that tested various active ingredients for the control of Chrysantemum segetum, a herbicide-tolerant species that causes problems in herbaceous and woody crops.
This document contains all the existing information and the results of field trials on the use of the grass Brachypodium distachyon as a groundcover, including its main characteristics, development, adaptation to the environment, pests and diseases, and its effectiveness against erosion.
This document compiles updated information to correctly perform foliar fertilization in olive groves.
This document is a summary of all the information currently available on the use of Sinapis alba subsp. mairei as a groundcover: description and characteristics of the species, implementation and management techniques for this type of groundcover, adaptation to the environment, and use in biofumigation.
This document presents the results of the first trials using organic products with potential phytotoxic effects to control weed species in organic olive groves. It presents some alternatives that should be studied and evaluated in greater depth with the goal of finding an ecological alternative to weed control in this type of olive grove.
This document presents the results of a long-term trial in which various morphological and physiological parameters were evaluated to determine the influence of irrigation on the development of Verticillium wilt in olive trees.
