Knowledge Evolution in Agroecology in Mediterranean Areas: A Bibliometric Analysis

Franco Grandas T., Furtado Torres F., Trindade H., Álvarez López V., Ferreiro Domínguez N., (Corresponding) Mosquera Losada M.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

The loss of productivity of agri-food systems today is known, partly related to biodiversity loss. To reverse this situation, adopting sustainable agri-environmental practices has been proposed. However, there are not enough studies in the scientific literature to explain why in-depth...Read more

Tolerance mechanisms and adaptive strategies of Moringa oleifera (L) during growth and vegetative development under water stress in hydroponics

Boumenjel A., Papadopoulos A., (Corresponding) Pantera A.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

In order to highlight the potential tolerance and/or resistance of Moringa oleifera (L), to drought during two weeks of germination in vitro. Osmotic water stress was induced under semi-controlled conditions. The water potential of the culture medium was lowered by the addition of...Read more

Solar parks effect on soil properties: Initial results

Du Hamel A., Papadopoulos A., (Corresponding) Pantera A.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Solar power generation in Greece has only been increasing since the 1980s to become the main source of renewable energy. Today, around 4.1 million m2 of Greek land is covered by solar parks. This article starts with a literature review on how the photovoltaic panels impact their environment and on...Read more

Assessment of sustainability of extensive livestock farming in Central Greece (Evrytania prefecture) using S.W.O.T Analysis

(Corresponding) Bakogiorgos G., Lappa V., (Corresponding) Tasios A., Papadopoulos A., Pantera A.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

Animal husbandry, both in Greece and worldwide, is under constant threat, being at the center of multiple crises: wars, droughts, pandemics, successive economic crises. The increase in the prices of livestock inputs, especially after 2020, has tested and highlighted the strengths of the various...Read more

Preliminary results of climate effect on phenology of honeydew producing insects of fir trees and the production of fir honey in Evritania - Greece

(Corresponding) Gounari S., Botonakis S., Papadopoulos A., Pantera A., Tassios A., Fotiadis G.

Topic:

Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability

In a 3-year program (2019-2021) the production of fir honey in the prefecture of Evritania, the most mountainous prefecture of Greece, was studied. The production of fir honey is influenced by the condition of the tree, the phenology of the honeydew producing insect, the beekeeper's management...Read more
