Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Agroforestry is a traditional land use system that may represent the answer to many present and future environmental problems. However, many farmers who practice agroforestry do not identity it as agroforestry nor even accept such identification. So far, there is not an organized training method on...Read more

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Abstract Agroforestry (AF) is a climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practice of deliberately integrating woody vegetation (trees or shrubs) with crop and/or animal systems to benefit from the resulting ecological and economic interactions. It is recognized as a proactive “negative emissions...Read more

Understory evolution related to organic fertilization in a silvopastoral system established under Pinus radiata D. Don. in an acidic soil

(Corresponding) MOSQUERA-LOSADA M., RODRÍGUEZ-RIGUEIRO F., SANTIAGO-FREIJANES J., RIGUEIRO-RODRÍGUEZ A., FERREIRO-DOMÍNGUEZ N.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Mixed pasture establishment is considered a key point to increase livestock production due to the higher quality it has compared with unmanaged shrubby species. They provide also a set of ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration and higher biodiversity. Moreover, herbaceous pasture...Read more

Pasture biodiversity after five years of establishment of a walnut silvopastoral system fertilized with different types of sewage sludge

ARIAS-MARTÍNEZ D., (Corresponding) MOSQUERA-LOSADA M., RIGUEIRO-RODRÍGUEZ A., FERREIRO-DOMÍNGUEZ N.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Silvopasture is the combination of woody vegetation with forage and animal production on the same land that allows the diversification of agricultural income and productivity. In the silvopastoral systems, the fertilisation with sewage sludge could increase tree growth and pasture production at the...Read more

Litter decomposition across a post-fire chronosequence in Mediterranean pine forests.

Sazeides C., Christopoulou A., (Corresponding) Fyllas N.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Litter decomposition is a key component of the global carbon cycle, and a process of great importance for the function of forest ecosystems. The rate of litter decomposition shows significant variation both between different forest types and within forests of different successional stage...Read more

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

The project ReNu2Farm (Nutrient Recycling – from pilot production to farms and fields, funded by the EU Interreg North-West Europe Program) focuses on closing nutrient cycles to substitute mineral fertiliser and to contribute to a sustainable agriculture by supporting demand-oriented application of...Read more

(Corresponding) Stergiadou A., Kolkos G., Tselepis A.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Τhe municipalities of big cities utilize public green areas within the urban fabric, in order to create a small-scale natural environment for the community. The methods and the instruments for surveying and implementing topographic projects differ in quality, accuracy, time and cost. The purpose of...Read more

(Corresponding) Stergiadou A., (Corresponding) Kolkos G.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Site inspections of the road network and the infrastructures in forest areas are crucial for development and protection of natural environment from several disasters such as forest fires. A digital topographical map can be an administrative tool to the Civil Protection and to Forest Offices for...Read more

Effect of Castanea sativa plantation age on soil bacterial communities

(Corresponding) Alvarez-Lopez V., Ferreiro-Dominguez N., Mosquera-Losada R.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Soil microbial communities are involved in key processes of forest ecosystems that include decomposition of organic matter, cycling of nutrients or formation of structure. The composition and diversity of these communities depend on a large number of factors such as humidity, pH, nutrient levels, C...Read more

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

The influence of two alternative agro-residues (barley and oat straw-ΒΟ and beech wood residues-ΒW) used as main cultivation substrates in respect to wheat straw-WS was examined on the production and quality characteristics of Pleurotus ostreatus, strain AMRL 144.
