E. Tamburini ; M. Gaglio ; G. Castaldelli ; E.A. Fano |Agro-ecosystems are intensively exploited environments which are both providers and consumers of ecosystem services. The improvement of both provisioning and regulating services in cultivated landscapes is crucial for the sustainable development[...]Article
Le secteur agricole est au cur denjeux majeurs, concernant la sécurité alimentaire, le climat et la biodiversité. Si tous les acteurs reconnaissent aujourdhui la nécessité dun changement de paradigme, peu saccordent sur la direction à prend[...]Article
Land reclamation is critically required to overcome the environmental and anthropogenic challenges in arid lands. The Western Nile Delta region, Egypt, is experiencing rapid reclamation processes for agriculture expansion. West Nubaria (781.92 k[...]Article
Guidelines are needed to support research and action on sustainable transitions towards more resilient and adaptable agroecosystems. Here I present an operationable and simple framework with theoretical underpinning to assess to what extent agro[...]Article
La mise en uvre de systèmes de culture durables et performants dans la filière fruits et légumes est un enjeu majeur des prochaines années. Au travers dun certain nombre de projets et de partenariats, le CTIFL a développé plusieurs approches s[...]Article
Assessing ecosystem services supplied by agroecosystems in Mediterranean Europe: a literature review
Agricultural landscapes in the Mediterranean region may be considered as social-ecological systems that are important for biodiversity conservation whilst contributing to a wide range of ecosystem services. This literature review aims to identif[...]Article
B. Sastre ; B. Álvarez ; O. Antón ; M.A. Pérez ; M.J. Marques ; R. Bienes ; A. García-Díaz |Olive groves on the Mediterranean Basin are usually managed by continuous tillage and low organic matter inputs, leading to several soil degradation processes. Groundcovers (GCs) have come out as an alternative soil management strategy to improv[...]Article

Juanes |On newly cultivated lands in deserts as in the majority of dryland areas, the sustainability of agricultural systems is often debated in terms of socioeconomic viability and agro-ecological longevity. In these contexts, livestock production syst[...]Article
Olive agroecosystems have for several decades undergone management changes aimed to meet the demands of new agricultural policy trends and of consumers and society. While the main role of olive groves is the production of olives and oil, its mul[...]Article

The agricultural sector faces a series of environmental challenges such as water and soil pollution, erosion or biodiversity loss, especially in monoculture systems. Alternatively, crop diversification is seen as an option to reduce negative imp[...]Article
Article
Crop water production functions (quantifying crop yield as a function of irrigation rate) can help in the design of management systems that reduce the water footprint. We examined the role of parameter uncertainties in characterizing production [...]Ouvrage
