The present review retraces the steps of industrial and agriculture revolution that have taken place up to day, giving ideas considerations for future. This paper analyses specific challenges facing along farming supply chain permit operative implementation Industry 4.0 guidelines. subsequent scientific value is an investigation how approaches can be improved pertinent agricultural sector. However, industry progressing at a much faster rate than agriculture. In fact, already today experts...
Mediterranean countries offer very favorable climatic conditions for growing plants in a protected environment: as matter of fact, the high solar radiation allows use greenhouses with simple structures, covered plastic film and without fixed installations winter heating. They are called “Mediterranean greenhouses” totally different from those Central Northern Europe. In photovoltaic greenhouses, cover on pitch facing south is usually replaced by opaque panels. However, this solution...
Concerns about climate change and food productivity have spurred interest in biochar, a form of charred organic material typically used agriculture to improve soil as means carbon sequestration. An innovative approach is the use agro-forestry waste for production fertilisers agricultural purposes source energy. A common practice burn crop residues field produce ashes that can be fertilisers. This able supply plants with certain nutrients, such Ca, K, Mg, Na, B, S, Mo. However, low...
Sustainability is often explained through three dimensions (society, economy and environment). However, such a definition currently appears to be restricted. Sustainable development includes the energy issue. An example of realities founded on bioenergy are agro-energy districts. These involve all sustainability, integrating also dimension fueling potential circular economy. Based these premises, most affluent rural subdivision in Italy that wine. The wine sector has experienced recent...
Agrivoltaics, the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems with agricultural activities, is gaining attention as an innovative solution to improve land use efficiency and address climate challenges. This study investigates potential challenges Agri-PV in Italian context using a bottom-up SWOT–AHP methodology, incorporating data from stakeholders across various sectors. Key findings highlight significant strengths, such increased technological innovation, well opportunities renewable energy...
Accidents and deaths at work are a persistent problem, with numbers still worrying. The agricultural forestry sector is among the most exposed to risks, particular attention noise risk from use of machinery operators. This study aims analyze exposure during wheeled tracked tractors, or without cab, as well other operating machines. analysis takes into account parameters Lpeak (peak sound pressure values), LAeq.T (time-weighted equivalent levels) LAS (maximum minimum values weighted according...
In recent years, the interest in health and safety workplace has increased. Agriculture is one of human work activities with highest risk indexes. Studies on perception agricultural workers are often referred to as specific factors (especially pesticides), but plays an important role preventing every kind accident occupational disease.The aim this research test a new method for understanding relation between among farmers main which they exposed. A secondary investigate influence training...
Modern agriculture is an extremely energy intensive process. However, high agricultural productivities and the growth of green revolution has been possible only by large amount inputs, especially those coming from fossil fuels. These resources have not able to provide economically viable solution for applications. Biomass energy‐based systems had extensively used transportation on farm during World War II: most common reliable was wood or biomass gasification. The latter means incomplete...
This study investigates the possibility of using near infrared spectroscopy for authentication 'Nocciola Romana' hazelnut (Corylus avellana L. cvs Tonda Gentile Romana and Nocchione) as a Protected Designation Origin (PDO) from central Italy. Algorithms selection optimal pretreatments were tested in combination with following discriminant routines: k-nearest neighbour, soft independent modelling class analogy, partial least squares analysis support vector machine analysis.The best results...
The diffusion of renewable energy requires the search for new technologies useful obtaining good and production efficiency. Even if latter is not always easy to obtain, integration photovoltaic panels on roof greenhouses intended floriculture can represent an alternative. present paper evaluates climatic conditions inside a greenhouse, in which 20% its surface has been replaced with mobile (PV) panels. PV system implemented this study vary light collection relation degree insolation. aim...
Tomatoes are the most common crop in Italy. The production cycle requires operations field and factory that can cause musculoskeletal disorders due to repetitive movements of upper limbs workers employed sorting phase. This research aims evaluate these risks using OCRA (occupational actions) index method. method is based firstly on calculation a maximum number recommended actions, related way operation performed, secondly comparison actions effectively carried out by limb with calculated...
