English translation of a compilation of projects developed through Rural Development Programmes, operational groups and innovative projects that are working on issues of improving forest management.

This webinar discussed the tools developed for the training of advisors and professionals in the agri-food and forestry sector. In addition, the importance of the continuity of the project through the Innovation Support Services was mentioned and different examples of how the project has been developed in Spain and in other European countries were shown.

The conservation and renewal of holm oaks and cork oaks is essential for the survival of the Mediterranean sclerophyllous forest, which is the most abundant forest formation in Andalusia.

The change in population and land use in rural forest areas has led to the abandonment of potentially productive areas, which requires the design of new management models and proposals for their revaluation.

To combine innovation in the rural world through technological transfer and the use of silvopastoral systems for the production of native Celtic pigs that give rise to products of differentiating quality through the use of own resources that allow sustainable and environmentally friendly practices within the agricultural and forestry sectors, carrying out activities that mitigate climate change

One of the key factors for improving the competitiveness of the agri-food and forestry sector is the promotion of innovation and the capitalisation of research results.

Annual report of the European Network of Forestry Extension Organisations (FOREXT) with information on training activities for private forest owners to improve forestry extension services across Europe

Recording of the webinar organized by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food on September 18, 2024, to share with the agri-food and forestry sector the main results of the i2connect project: Connecting Advisors. Promoting Interactive Innovation in Agriculture and Forestry.

The budding, survival, and initial growth of eight walnut clones selected for their forestry suitability were evaluated. Planting was carried out in March 2014 using a randomized complete block design. All clones tested, except one, had budding percentages above 50%. We can classify clones as early-budding and late-budding. The duration of the budding period varies depending on the clone.

"Technical Dossier No. 123: “Operational groups in Catalonia. Call 2018” is dedicated to the Operational Groups developed within the framework of the CAP Strategic Plan (PEPAC 2023-2027), and taking into account the Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems, also known as AKIS (Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation System).

This publication describes the progress made by IFAPA in remote sensing modeling of water flows and vegetation cover in dehesa forests.

In agricultural landscapes, their aesthetic, ecological, and cultural dimensions are clearly integrated, creating a link between the cultural ecosystem services they provide to society and other ecosystem services, including biodiversity preservation.

Results of the evaluation carried out on the impact of the actions carried out by the LIFE+ Biodehesa Project in Andalusia.

Root rot caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi in Quercus trees is responsible for the death of holm oaks and cork oaks in dehesas. Biofumigation using green burying of some Brassicas may be another tool for integrated disease control.

Root rot affecting Quercus, caused by soil-borne pathogens such as Phytophthora cinnamomi or Pythium spiculum, is responsible for many deaths of holm oaks and cork oaks in dehesas. Calcium fertilization is a tool for integrated disease control.

Root rot caused by the pathogen Phytophthora cinnamomi Rands. has been identified as one of the most damaging and lethal diseases affecting Quercus trees worldwide.

The Dehesa or pastureland system is a livestock agroecosystem comprised of two basic components: the tree (usually Quercus sp.) and the vegetation cover (grass and scrubland). Extensive livestock farming (cattle, sheep, and Iberian pigs) takes advantage of their products.

The acorn plays a fundamental role in the dehesa (pasture) because it is obtained in a season when there are few resources available in the countryside, and its high energy value makes it highly valued for fattening and maintaining livestock and game.
