Almonds have been gradually introduced into the Guadalquivir Valley under irrigated conditions in recent years as an alternative to other traditional crops with lower profitability. Therefore, there is a significant demand for knowledge regarding the most appropriate irrigation strategies for this crop, especially when water availability is below the crop's optimum.
The almond tree, Prunus dulcis (Mill.) DA Webb, is one of the most important crops in Spain, mostly grown under rainfed conditions and in marginal areas where inputs are very scarce.
The high cost of misting systems and their use for only temporary climate control during the growing season do not allow for optimal return on investment, which is why they have begun to be used as equipment for applying phytosanitary products.
Animal welfare as a principle of livestock management is a concept that has been actively developed in recent years. The proper treatment of animals has been practiced since ancient times, although it has not been included in regulations. In this regard, the European Union is a pioneer in developing and guaranteeing the protection and welfare of animals.
This paper presents the results of an experiment evaluating the influence of land slope and the loading and unloading of localized irrigation tapes on irrigation distribution uniformity (DU).
Document that compiles the results of studies conducted on the potential impacts of climate change on Andalusian olive groves and the recommended adaptation measures to ensure their future sustainability.
Technical document on measures to adapt corn cultivation to future climate change conditions, with the aim of addressing the reduction in water resources, avoiding the impact of extreme temperature events, and studying the possible adaptation of corn cultivation to the expected increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Technical document on the methodology for implementing no-till farming and its impact as a climate change mitigation practice, sequestering atmospheric carbon and reducing atmospheric emissions.
During the 2020/2021 crop year, IFAPA characterized the productivity of a group of 12 varieties selected from those currently available on the market. The objective of this study is to study and demonstrate the differences in production-related parameters between the tested varieties.
During the 2020/2021 campaign, a group of 14 varieties selected from those currently available on the market were characterized. The parameters evaluated and presented in this work are related to the production and quality of the different varieties.
During the 2023/2024 crop year, yield-related traits were analyzed in 16 strawberry varieties from different breeding programs grown in four cultivation systems in the Huelva growing region: conventional cultivation, cultivation without soil disinfection, soilless cultivation, and organic cultivation. The results obtained are presented in this paper.
During the spring of 2014, watermelon plants in a greenhouse located in the province of Almería exhibited symptoms similar to those induced by Melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV), such as necrosis of fruit, leaves, and stems.
Document showing the results of consumer opinions on the acceptance and preferences for the most representative intrinsic attributes of the traditional tomato varieties tested, assessing their taste quality. During the tasting sessions, respondents evaluated the following intrinsic attributes: firmness, juiciness, sweetness, acidity, and persistence.
Document showing the results of a three-year trial comparing the effects of manual pruning and mechanical pruning of two red grape varieties grown in the Montilla mountain range on their agronomic performance and oenological potential.
Document showing the results of a study aimed at optimizing maceration time to obtain a rosé wine from the Melonera variety. It details the production of rosé wines and the results obtained with this variety in four consecutive campaigns (2011-2014).
Document showing the results of the calculation of the cultivation coefficient (Kc) for almond trees in Western Andalusia, recommending the irrigation water dosage in three areas of Córdoba and Seville.
Document showing the results of the study carried out over four consecutive seasons in a vineyard located in the IFAPA Rancho de la Merced center. The main objectives were to improve crop profitability by applying new mechanized cultivation practices and techniques, and to study the impact of new viticulture models on plant physiology and the quality of the grapes and wine.
This document presents the olive and olive oil sector's perception of the work carried out by the Rural Development Groups in the provinces of Jaén, Córdoba, and Granada. The work was carried out as part of the Transforma Olive and Olive Oil Project.
Document showing the analytical and sensory results of the partial dealcoholization of young Palomino Fino white wines. The wines were produced and subsequently dealcoholized at the Rancho de la Merced experimental winery. The grapes used came from three coastal towns in the province of Cádiz.
Document showing the results of trials conducted between 2011 and 2013 on the agronomic, physiological, and qualitative effects of moderate irrigation on Vitis vinifera cv. Syrah and cv. Cabernet Sauvignon, grown in a Mediterranean climate.
