Tolerance of Moringa oleifera to stress
Boumenjel A., (Corresponding) Pantera A., Ammari Y.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Moringa oleifera (Lam) is a fast growing tree that is gradually getting more attention for it numerous uses. It is often called "natural gift" or "miracle tree" because of its many nutritional, forage, medicinal and industrial potentialities. Moringa oleifera appears to be a...Read more

Aerial spectral index analysis for differential management zone delineation in a maize field
Tsakmakis I., Panagopoulos S., (Corresponding) Gikas G., Sylaios G.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Inhomogeneities of soil properties are responsible for within-field variations on plants’ growth and final yield. In this paper, initially, the variations of a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) field map obtained through a camera mounted on a drone were correlated with soil and plant...Read more
Microwave communication networks as a sustainable tool of rainfall monitoring for agriculture needs in Africa
(Corresponding) David N., (Corresponding) Gao H., Kumah K., Hoedjes J., Su B., Liu Y.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Commercial Microwave Links (CMLs), that provide the underlying framework for data transfer between cellular network base stations have been found effective for monitoring rainfall. Wireless infrastructure of this kind is deployed widely by communication providers across Africa and can be used as a...Read more
PHOTOSYNTHETIC RESPONSE OF SPRING OILSEED RAPE TO HEAT, DROUGHT, NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY AND COMBINED STRESS
(Corresponding) Dikšaitytė A., Viršilė A., Januškaitienė I., Žaltauskaitė J.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
This study was aimed to determine the photosynthetic response of spring oilseed rape to heatwave (HW), drought, nutrient deficiency (N-D) and combined stress. HW and drought acted in a different manner. Under both adequate and deprived soil nutrient conditions, in the presence of adequate water...Read more
Quantification of Soil Properties from Hyperspectral Data for Sustainable Agriculture Using Deep Learning
(Corresponding) Singh S., Kasana S.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
The characterization of soil properties is critical for optimizing farming for sustainable agriculture. All the existing techniques for soil quantification do not take advantage of the sequential nature of Hyperspectral Data. This work focuses on proposing a Hybrid Framework that can quantitatively...Read more
Estimation of Soil Organic Carbon for Sustainable Agriculture using Deep Learning
(Corresponding) Singh S., Kasana S.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
The organic carbon percentage is concomitant indicating the mineralization of nutrients and the ability of the soil to hold nutrients cations, structural stability, and water holding capacity. It is necessary to know the quantity of carbon for healthy soil and avoid the production related problems...Read more

Εffect of summer drought in the natural regeneration of valonia oak
(Corresponding) PAPADOPOULOS A.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
This paper presents an initial attempt to investigate the effect of drought in the mortality of valonia oak (Quercus ithaburensis subsp. macrolepis) seedlings and young saplings in a silvopastoral system in western Greece. The experiment was conducted in fenced experimental plots where the number...Read more
Impact of nitrogen fertilization on nodulation and symbiotic efficiency of indigenous Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains
(Corresponding) Sikora S., Abrlic J., Rajnović I., Kajic S.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Nitrogen fixation is a beneficial microbial process that greatly contribute to sustainable agricultural production and environment protection. Soil bacteria, collectively named rhizobia, are characterized by their unique ability to induce the formation of root nodules in which they convert...Read more
(Corresponding) Vrchotová B., Škotková M., Vlková V., Kolochová I., Lovecká P.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Due to increasing demands to agricultural production it is necessary to fine processes which will increase health of cultural plants and will have positive impact on landscape with potential to increase production. Our work is concerned on grapevine plants (Vitis vinifera) endophytic population. We...Read more
The effect of intercrop on soil properties of an agroforestry system in Kea -Greece
(Corresponding) Pantera A., Papadopoulos A., Fotiadis G., Kapsalis D., Pinelopi P., Papaspyropoulos K.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
Valonia oak is the most widespread tree species found in the Aegean island of Kea - Cyclades. It forms traditional agroforestry systems since intensive agriculture is not easily practiced in the island due to the xerothermic climate and the rough terrain with steep slopes. This system has...Read more
