Factors such as the type and concentration of inoculum of the defoliating pathotype of Verticillium dahliae in irrigation, root wounding of the olive tree, and the number of irrigation campaigns are considered for their effects on Verticillium wilt in the cultivar 'Picual' and the density of residual inoculum of the fungus in the soil.

Sowing date and rate are two parameters to consider for achieving higher crop yields. The objective of this study was to evaluate the adaptation of chickpea lines with resistance to rabies, considering two sowing dates (December and January) and two doses (24 plants/m² and 17 plants/m²).

Guide for fertigation of tomatoes in industrial crops, taking into account the limitation established in the regulations for integrated tomato production.

Until recently, there has been considerable uncertainty about the effect of the duration and number of irrigation pulses on irrigation efficiency and strawberry crop production in the province of Huelva. This document presents the results of a study conducted for this purpose on a commercial farm located in the TM of Almonte, applying irrigation pulses of 5, 10, and 15 minutes.

Today, the demands of the agricultural sector are directed toward the search for non-toxic, natural, and useful active substances for the protection or stimulation of crops grown under unfavorable conditions, such as those found in warm climates. Spain leads the world in terms of cultivated vineyards.

Today, the growing consumer demand for new products is driving research into the dairy sector's development, aiming to increase dairy diversification. In addition to seeking resource optimization, the production of spreadable processed cheese is emerging. This cheese is made by combining different types of cheeses to obtain a final product of guaranteed quality.

Today, there are still species of arthropods that behave as significant pests for citrus fruits in other regions of the world, yet are not present in our growing area.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of a biofortification program with different doses of potassium in the form of KCl on cherry tomato production, fruit quality, ripening speed, and cold storage.

This study aims to propose recommendations for the proper operation, inspection, and maintenance of pesticide application equipment in the main greenhouse areas of the province of Almería. The results presented here correspond to surveys conducted to determine the condition of application equipment in the Bajo Andarax and Campo de Dalías regions.

A study on the impact on biodiversity in four farms in the Seville countryside, where four different types of multifunctional margins have been established on farms with cereal-sunflower-legume rotations in the Lower Guadalquivir valley. Particular attention is paid to soil arthropod fauna and pollinators.

Europe faces the ongoing challenge of producing plant-based proteins. Broad beans are an excellent candidate, but they require further development with different agronomic characteristics and adaptations to different countries and agroclimatic regions.

There is a need to improve cereal production to meet the increasing demand for food. By 2050, production is estimated to increase by 60%. Cereals—corn, rice, and wheat—represent 42.5% of all human calories.
