Mango is one of the most prized exotic fruits worldwide. In Andalusia, it is cultivated commercially in the provinces of Granada and Málaga thanks to the area's characteristic microclimate. Deficit irrigation is an optimization strategy whereby crops are subjected to a controlled level of water stress, resulting from a reduction in water input based on the crop's net demand.
The wheat midge is a pest present in Andalusian wheat every season, usually in a secondary role. However, its incidence has been increasing in recent seasons. This publication analyzes the insect's life cycle and the control measures available for its dissemination in the Andalusian cereal sector.
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 almond worm (Capnodis tenebrionis L) has become the main pest affecting almond crops, to the point that it can kill the plant and cause the uprooting of plantations.
Citrus HLB is currently considered the most devastating disease affecting citrus crops worldwide, but it is not yet present in the Mediterranean area.
