A talk by Miguel Altieri. Agroecology is the only alternative to address the current global food crisis. There is a clash between industrial agriculture and peasant agriculture. We must choose peasant agriculture because it currently produces 70% of the food we consume, because it is sustainable, resilient, and will help mitigate climate change.
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 rise in almond prices in recent years, a consequence of strong global demand, is causing a revolution in this crop, with a significant increase in the cultivated area in Spain.
The aim of this study is to determine the performance of different traditional tomato cultivars, sourced from the germplasm bank of the Murcia Institute of Agricultural and Food Research and Development (IMIDA), known as BAGERIM, and the Torre-Pacheco Integrated Center for Agricultural Training and Experiences (CIFEA de Torre-Pacheco), intended for fresh consumption.
This book presents the results of several demonstration plots implemented at the CIFEA research center in Torre-Pacheco. These plots focused on two types of vegetation: Vegetative Barrier and Conservation Structures (VBS) and Nutrient Retention Surfaces (5%), both of which are mandated by Law 3/2020 for the recovery and protection of the Mar Menor lagoon.
Seven pomegranate varieties are being studied on a collaborating farm located in the Murcian district of Cabezo de Torres, within the jurisdiction of the Huerta de Murcia Regional Agricultural Office.
Wine sector intervention, Interventions within the framework of the CAP Strategic Plan
When mainstream media discuss sustainability, it often seems that one of its pillars, the economic one, is barely mentioned, overshadowed by the greater external impact of the other two: the environmental and the social.
Fruit and vegetable producer organizations and their associations (OPFH and AOPFH) are a fundamental element of the 2023-2027 CAP aid scheme, through their own sectoral intervention (the Fruit and Vegetable Sectoral Intervention, ISFH) in Spain.
Agriculture and the environment can not only coexist, but are the best allies for ensuring each other's future.
The challenges and opportunities of the Spanish cheese sector is a publication, promoted by Cajamar, with the collaboration of the Interprofessional Dairy Organization (InLac), intended to be a reference text for anyone interested in the world of cheese, whether from a social perspective as a consumer, a technological perspective as a producer, an economic perspective as a producer or marketer,
Cajamar celebrates 50 years of commitment to agricultural research by publishing a work that transcends mere commemoration to become a key reference tool.
Over the last few decades, it has become clear that wines from current and future harvests will undergo chemical and microbiological alterations due to the effects of climate change. Changes in grape ripening are producing musts with higher sugar concentrations and lower acidity, resulting in wines with higher alcohol levels and less freshness on the palate.
Polysaccharides are the main colloidal macromolecules present in wine. These compounds play a fundamental role in stabilizing other molecules in solution, thus modifying the wine's processing and organoleptic properties. Various analytical techniques have been proposed for their determination. However, most are complex and time-consuming.
The use of indigenous yeasts in wine production is a tool for preserving the typicity of a particular region. Selecting appropriate indigenous yeasts ensures the maintenance of oenological characteristics by simulating spontaneous alcoholic fermentation (SF) while avoiding the risks of stalled or slow fermentations.
Wine is an alcoholic product that has been produced worldwide for millennia with very few changes to its production process until the last century. Over the past few decades, grapevines have been affected by climate change as multiple climacteric crops, and consequently, the composition of grape must and the final wine is changing.
Fertigation is the technique that allows the distribution of fertilizers dissolved in irrigation water. This technique, which can be used with various irrigation systems, is widely used in drip irrigation.
