The unique characteristics of some Rubus species could be used to increase the diversity of nutritionally sound products available to consumers; however, there are no conclusive reports on the physicochemical and nutritional properties of blackberry varieties grown in greenhouses in Almería, Spain.
Olive grove cultivation practices must aim to achieve high profitability and quality production, both organoleptic and sanitary, while also being environmentally sustainable. Soil management is of great importance to prevent soil loss, as erosion is one of the main problems facing olive groves.
Over time, the main branches of the adult olive tree begin to show signs of exhaustion with reduced vegetative growth, mainly due to the lack of light and space they will encounter during their development.
Soil maintenance techniques comprise a set of cultural operations aimed at achieving and maintaining a favorable balance between the solid, gaseous, and liquid phases of the soil.
Sunflower varieties with genetic resistance to certain herbicide treatments (Clearfield and Sulfo varieties) are gradually gaining ground. These varieties provide acceptable control of broad- and narrow-leaved weeds, as well as control the common hornwort (Orobanche cumana).
Diseases caused by soil-borne pathogens are a limiting factor for strawberry crop productivity. Currently, they are mainly controlled through chemical control strategies with fumigants subject to exceptional use authorizations. Reducing the use of these agrochemical fumigants and implementing more sustainable alternatives are priority objectives in European and national agricultural policies.
Official statistics and literature base their analyses on the premise that the property is the sole source of agricultural production for its owner, without taking into account other agreements, whether formal or informal, that modify the area of work and, therefore, the profitability of farms.
Strawberries are a highly perishable fruit; their delicate skin can easily deteriorate during harvesting and transport, making them highly susceptible to fungal attack. Furthermore, the high respiration rate of the fruit causes it to ripen quickly, losing water and turgor. Good postharvest management is essential for the fruit to be accepted by consumers.
Strawberries, in addition to being highly valued for their flavor, are considered healthy fruits, as they contain bioactive compounds, both in the receptacle and in the achenes, linked to multiple health benefits.
Mini vegetables, also known as "snacks," began to be cultivated in Spain as a diversification alternative and a value chain development strategy for the horticultural sector. Although they still occupy a small market share, these vegetables could generate potential market niches to obtain greater added value and make their cultivation more profitable.
The Agro-Environment and Climate Training Days are part of the actions aimed at ensuring correct compliance with the agro-environmental commitments acquired in some of the operations included in Measure 10 "Agro-Environment and
The Agro-Environment and Climate Training Workshops are part of the initiatives aimed at ensuring proper compliance with the agro-environmental commitments acquired in some of the operations included in Measure 10 "Agro-Environment and Climate" of the Andalusian Rural Development Program 2014-2022.
Mechanical harvesting has become increasingly prevalent in recent decades in most Andalusian vineyards adapted to this type of machinery. However, this technique has always raised concerns about the final quality of the products obtained and even the profitability of the operation due to the potential losses that can occur.
The lack of approved pre- and post-emergence herbicides, especially against dicotyledons, is one of the main obstacles to planting broad beans in Andalusian drylands, due to the great diversity and abundance of weeds, including highly competitive large species.
Solarization is a soil disinfection system that involves mulching moist soil with thin, transparent plastic for 4–6 weeks during periods of peak temperature and solar radiation.
Lacewings are insects that are part of the complex of beneficial arthropods that prey on crop pests. Diversity has been shown to be a fundamental tool for maintaining this beneficial arthropod fauna and protecting crops from pest attacks. This work is part of a larger study whose main objective is to document the biodiversity of useful arthropods in protected horticulture in Almería.
The qualities of black peat are not optimal for use as a substrate alone. We sought to improve its low pH and tendency to compact, determining the optimal mixtures for use in nurseries with vegetable seedlings.

The cultivated area in Andalusia has undergone considerable change in recent years as a result of the decoupling of subsidies from the Common Agricultural Policy. With the entry into force of the new CAP, the sustainability of farms is clearly enhanced, favoring crop rotation, with special mention of legumes.
