This document provides general guidelines for scheduling olive grove irrigation in various rainfall scenarios during the 2015 irrigation season. Rainfall in Andalusian olive groves during the current agricultural year, up to March 2015, has generally been below the annual average.
Due to its diversity and territorial extension, Andalusia is home to numerous minority varieties, offering local viticulture the opportunity to diversify its wine production. Between 2020 and 2022, molecular identification was carried out on 66 specimens from five traditional winemaking areas. Thirteen microsatellite markers were used, including the nine recommended by the OIV.
Due to climate change, significant warming is expected in Southern Europe, with significant increases in average summer temperatures (up by 6°C compared to temperatures at the end of the century) and substantial decreases in spring and summer rainfall. Heat waves, periods of drought, torrential rains, and thunderstorms (extreme events) will occur more frequently (IPCC 2014).
