Comprehensive nutritional profile of six microgreens, including proximate composition and bioactive compounds.
Cover crops are increasingly adopted in viticulture to enhance soil quality and balance the vegetative reproductive growth of vines. Nevertheless, this sustainable practice has been only recently used for table grape viticulture, with results often contrasting. The aim study was assess effect a fescue (Festucaarundinacea Schreb.) cover crop on quality, yield, qualitative parameters vineyard (cv “Italia”) located southern Italy, comparing conventional tillage. Soil organic carbon (C), total...
Abstract Silicon (Si) is a beneficial element for plants as it increases their resistance to several biotic and abiotic stresses. In the rhizosphere, root exudates, especially when released by nutritionally stressed plants, promote mineral weathering and, consequently, influence Si biogeochemistry. This study aims at evaluating mineralogical alterations in rhizosphere of Fe‐deficient or Fe‐sufficient barley grown either natural an artificial calcareous soil, focusing on dynamics both Fe Si....
Sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum L.), an emerging halophyte species, represents a nutritious and refined food product. In this study, the effect on yield quality of potted sea grown three posidonia (Podisonia oceanica (L.) Delile)-based composts (a municipal organic solid waste compost, sewage sludge compost green compost) peat-based substrate was analyzed. Composts were used both pure mixed with peat at dose 50% volume basis. We hypothesized that halophytic nature plant might overcome...
Assessment of soil quality under different management practices is crucial for sustainable agricultural production and natural resource use. In this study, statistical methods (principal component analysis, PCA; stepwise discriminant SDA; partial least squares regression with VIP statistics, PLSR) were applied to identify the variables that most discriminated status minimum tillage no-tillage. Data collected in 2015 from a long-term field experiment on durum wheat (Triticum Desf.) used...
Soil management in vineyards is a crucial component of sustainable viticulture. Weed control under the row has traditionally been addressed using mechanical, physical, and chemical techniques, but herbicides pose environmental health risks. The circular economy offers an alternative approach by converting organic waste into resource, such as compost. This study explores effectiveness compost derived from fraction municipal solid (MSW) not only mulching technique also potential biological...
Soil degradation is one of the most topical environmental threats. A number processes causing soil degradation, specifically erosion, compaction, salinization, pollution, and loss both organic matter biodiversity, are also strictly connected to agricultural activity its intensification. The development adoption sustainable agronomic practices able preserve enhance physical, chemical, biological properties soils improve agroecosystem functions a challenge for scientists farmers. This Special...
