This document is addressed to those almond farm owners who are beneficiaries of aid under the Agri-Environment and Climate measure, with the aim of informing them of the mandatory requirements to be met, as well as arguing the reasons for this aid and the purpose it seeks to achieve, in order to understand the commitments required.
Olive groves perform an environmental function that can be altered by the cultivation techniques used. Among these, the type of management employed to control weed vegetation can significantly influence the performance of this function and, therefore, the provision of environmental public goods.
The nitrogen fertilization restriction scheme for eligibility for agri-environment support for cotton crops proposes a maximum nitrogen dose.
This document, catalogued as teaching material, is the reference manual to be used in the Integrated Production of Oilseeds and Grain Legumes courses. This document, structured into five teaching units, addresses the minimum knowledge required to obtain the qualification as an Integrated Production Technician for Oilseeds and Grain Legumes. Unit 1: Integrated Production.
This document constitutes the teaching material for the third module, "Occupational Risk Prevention and Environmental Impact in the Dairy Industry," of the "Cheese Specialist" Training Project.
The objective of Operation 10.1.8 is to provide financial support to those areas of environmental interest, Agricultural Holdings included in the ZEPA (Natura 2000 Network), are on the list of wetlands of the RAMSAR Convention or in the Doñana Biosphere Reserve, hosting a large number of bird species.
The objective was to evaluate the effect of irrigation canal systems on pollinator abundance. Insect abundance and pollination were highest in traditional irrigation ditches, but progressively decreased in intermediate and piped irrigation ditches.
The overall objective of this operation is to maintain the extensive livestock farming model, promote sustainable livestock management and the environmental benefits derived from this agricultural activity, and encourage a greater degree of extensification of ruminant farms. The following are encouraged: ? Stubble and natural pastures. ? Reduced grazing pressure. ?
The objective is to facilitate the various procedures for accessing plant genetic resources conserved ex situ at IFAPA, as established in Royal Decree 429/2020, of March 3.
The main objective of this study was to calculate and evaluate the environmental impact of a passive heating system in a greenhouse representative of the production area of Andalusia. To do so, we compared the environmental impacts of a pepper crop grown in a greenhouse equipped with such a heating system using simple heat accumulators (water hoses) and in an unheated greenhouse.
The objective of this study was to determine the carbon footprint of different cherry tomato cultivation systems in the Mediterranean region throughout their life cycle. The plastic greenhouse system had the highest carbon footprint.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the greenhouse performance of 12 traditional medium-to-large tomato cultivars under organic production standards. Secondary objectives include a study of yield, soil chemical parameters before and after cultivation, and pH adjustment during fertigation.
Hops (Humulus lupulus L.) are a poor crop in Spain, an essential ingredient in beer, and have medicinal and cosmetic applications. Currently, all necessary production is imported, and only about 550 hectares are cultivated in León. Three trials were conducted to determine its viability using a single variety, Nugget, the most common in the north.
Managing dehesas is complex. It requires knowledge and skills that can only be acquired through training and experience. Incorporating biodiversity promotion into dehesas should be a criterion used in decision-making to improve management and make them more sustainable.
The rapid growth of the world's population leads to a high demand for food. This requires the development of new techniques and compounds for use in agriculture, which generate numerous environmental problems. Notable among these is the use of phytosanitary products and pesticides for pest control. Both their application and preparation are sources of environmental pollution.
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.
IFAPA has been working on new methods to develop proper irrigation scheduling in areas without a nearby meteorological station or in areas where the existing station is not representative of the study area.
This document presents the IFAPA Legume Germplasm Bank, its objectives, functions, nature, and procedures for requesting information and germplasm.
The document provides an introduction to the technique of electromagnetic induction for measuring the apparent electrical conductivity of soil at different spatial scales and demonstrates its usefulness for various practical applications in agriculture.
The document describes the features, utilities, and instructions for use of the Gest-Cubierta App, a free and pioneering tool developed by IFAPA for monitoring and managing vegetation cover in woody crop plantations in Andalusia.
