A fruit growth approach to estimate oil content in olives
López Bernal, Álvaro; Fernandes-Silva, Anabela A.; Vega, Victorino A.; Hidalgo, Juan C.; León, Lorenzo; Testi, Luca; Villalobos, Francisco J. (Elsevier, 2021)Harvest timing in olive orchards has a strong effect on the quality and quantity of oil yield, but many farmers still lack simple and affordable quantitative tools for rationally deciding appropriate harvest dates. This ... -
ClimaSG: A weather generator for crop modelling and water requirements studies
Mairech, Hanene; López Bernal, Álvaro; Testi, Luca; Villalobos, Francisco J. (Elsevier, 2022)A new stochastic weather generator, ClimaSG, is presented and evaluated under a wide range of climates. The model requires monthly means data as inputs to generate daily weather data. Validation tests revealed that ClimaSG ... -
Is new olive farming sustainable? A spatial comparison of productive and environmental performances between traditional and new olive orchards with the model OliveCan
Mairech, Hanene; López Bernal, Álvaro; Moriondo, Marco; Dibari, Camilla; Regni, Luca; Proietti, Primo; Villalobos, Francisco J.; Testi, Luca (Elsevier, 2020)Olive (Olea europaea L.) is a widely spread tree species in the Mediterranean. In the last decades, olive farming has known major management changes with high economic and environmental impacts. The fast track expansion ... -
Is olive crop modelling ready to assess the impacts of global change?
Villalobos, Francisco J.; López Bernal, Álvaro; García Tejera, Omar; Testi, Luca (Frontiers, 2023)Olive trees, alongside grapevines, dominate the Mediterranean tree crop landscape. However, as climate change intensifies, the Mediterranean region, which encompasses 95% of the global olive cultivation area, faces significant ... -
Modelling the impacts of cover crop management strategies on the water use, carbon exchange and yield of olive orchards
López Bernal, Álvaro; García Tejera, Omar; Testi, Luca; Villalobos, Francisco J. (Springer, 2022)Cover crops have long been proposed as an alternative soil management for minimizing erosion rates in olive stands while providing additional ecosystem services. However, the trade-off between these benefits and the ... -
Pre- and post-harvest evapotranspiration, carbon exchange and water use efficiency of a mature peach orchard in semi-arid climate
Testi, Luca; López Bernal, Álvaro; Orgaz Rosúa, Francisco; Villalobos, Francisco J. (Springer, 2022)Better knowledge of the evapotranspiration and carbon exchange of fruit trees is needed to optimize the trade-off between water use and carbon assimilation and to better understand the role of agriculture in the biogeochemical ... -
Sustainability of olive growing in the Mediterranean area under future climate scenarios: Exploring the effects of intensification and deficit irrigation
Mairech, Hanene; López Bernal, Álvaro; Moriondo, Marco; Dibari, Camilla; Regni, Luca; Proietti, Primo; Villalobos, Francisco J.; Testi, Luca (Elsevier, 2021)Olive orchards represent a key agricultural system with high economic and environmental prominence. Expected future climate tendencies over the Mediterranean could threaten the sustainability of such strategic tree crop. ...
