Maize is one of the main irrigated crops in northern Spain. However, traditional cropping system used for its cultivation has relied on intensive monoculture, demanding significant inputs, and resulting occasional unprofitable yields. A promising practice to increase sustainability farms use double-cropping systems. The aim this study was evaluate combined impact introducing a legume prior maize, together with different tillage systems mineral N fertilization rates crop yields water...

The environmental impact of livestock waste has driven the need for nutritional strategies to enhance digestive efficiency in pigs, aiming reduce nutrient excretion and associated emissions pollutants like ammonia (NH 3 ) greenhouse gases (GHG). This study investigated effects dietary crude protein (CP) reduction by 1.5%, combined with supplementation a treatment that included feed additives higher soluble fiber levels, on digestibility, slurry composition, across growing finishing phases....

The irrigation systems of the Ebro valley can lead to high N2O emissions. effects that crop diversification, such as double-cropping in combination with conservation tillage and different N fertilizer ratios, has on soil emissions have not been extensively studied this region. goal research was measure determine practices fertilization rates provide lowest when combined systems. work compared monocropping maize (MC) versus legume-maize (DC) two (conventional tillage, CT; no-tillage, NT),...

Agronomic factors can affect mycotoxin contamination of maize, one the most produced cereals. Maize is usually harvested at 18% moisture, but it not microbiologically stable until reaches 14% moisture drying plants. We studied how three agronomic (crop diversification, tillage system and nitrogen fertilization rate) fungal (deoxynivalenol fumonisins B1 B2) in maize harvest. In addition, changes during a simulated harvest-till-drying period were studied. DON content harvest was higher for...
