Abstract. Approximately 65% of anthropogenic emissions N2O, a potent greenhouse gas (GHG), originate from soils at global scale, and particularly after N fertilisation the main crops in Europe. Thanks to their capacity fix atmospheric N2 through biological fixation, legumes can reduce fertilizer use, possibly N2O emissions. Nevertheless, decomposition crop organic matter during cycle residue decomposition, fixation process itself, could lead The objective this study was quantify dry pea...
Agroforestry, the intentional integration of trees with crops and/or livestock, can lead to multiple economic and ecological benefits compared crops/livestock grown separately. Field experimentation has been primary approach understanding tree–crop interactions inherent in agroforestry. However, number field experiments limited by slow tree maturation difficulty obtaining consistent funding. Models have potential overcome these hurdles rapidly advance agroforestry systems. Hi-sAFe is a...
Abstract Agroforestry, the integration of trees, crops, and animals, is expected to increase environmental sustainability fruit production compared traditional orchards. Virtual experiments with models would allow performance these systems be evaluated in a range pedoclimatic management scenarios, taking into account interactions trees crops. The should represent tree crop growth 3D, run simulations over whole life cycle orchard, for practices that influence tree-crop interactions. We...
Introduction: Climate change (CC) and the increased occurrence of extreme climatic events pose a serious threat to crop yields their stability worldwide. This study analyzed CC mitigation potential an alley cropping system on physiological stresses growth as compared monoculture system. Materials Methods: Growth winter durum wheat, cultivated alone (agriculture) in combination with hybrid walnut (agroforestry), was simulated Hi-sAFe agroforestry model, driven by business-as-usual...
Since 2006, an increasing number of French vineyards have chosen to convert organic farming. One major change in vineyard practices includes replacing chemical pesticides with copper and sulfur-based products line Council Regulation (EC) No. 834/2007. This can make overall management pest disease control more difficult potentially lead yield losses. From 2013 2016, a network 48 plots, southern France, under conventional conversion farming were monitored throughout the three-year phase...
Abstract In the face of climate change, more frequent drought events are expected in Mediterranean regions. Alley cropping is an agroforestry practice that represents a promising adaptation strategy to sustain yield productivity under drier conditions. However, presence trees limits intercrop by reducing light availability and competing for soil water resources, which could potentially exacerbate losses due Furthermore, effects co‐occurring shade stresses on annual crops still poorly...
Summary In order to investigate potential links existing between Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici ( Ggt ) population structure and disease development during polyetic take‐all epidemics in sequences of host cereals, seven fields with different cropping histories were monitored the seasons 2001/2002 (two fields), 2002/2003 fields) 2003/2004 (three fields). Take‐all incidence severity measured at stem elongation populations characterized. The 73 isolates collected two distributed into...
Abstract In agroforestry systems, the canopy of maturing trees progressively reduces radiation available for crop. Tree management practices such as pollarding can be used to restore crop light availability. We monitored durum wheat, barley and pea yields during three consecutive years in an alley‐cropping system with hybrid walnut Southern France. Trees have been pruned regularly 4 m since planting (in 1995), a section 50 was pollarded at height first time 2013. measured components two...
Point pattern analysis (fitting of the beta‐binomial distribution and binary form power law) was used to describe spatial natural take‐all epidemics (caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici ) on a second consecutive crop winter wheat in plots under different cropping practices that could have an impact quantity primary inoculum, spread disease. The aggregated 48% datasets when disease incidence assessed at plant level 83% it root level. Clusters diseased roots were general less than 1...
Abstract Despite its potential for fostering farm sustainability, the adoption of agroforestry faces context-dependent challenges, among which (perceived) shortage decision-supporting tools and barriers hindering assessment economic, environmental, social benefits. The process digitalization offers significant opportunities to enhance but it remains crucial foster a human-centric, fair, sustainable approach. In context DigitAF Horizon Europe project, we present results multi-stakeholder...
Disease spread occurs at several spatial scales, e.g., from field to field, plant plant, and leaf leaf. So far, epidemiological models have largely overlooked the multiscale nature of epidemics. Here, we propose a model that simulates disease across multiple scales in nested hierarchy. The is based on central ideas hierarchy theory, i.e., (i) system decomposed vertically into levels horizontally holons (elements one level, which are complete systems when seen lower level), (ii) higher...
