The objective of this publication is to provide the agricultural sector with up-to-date information on broad bean plant material tested in western Andalusia, including its agronomic and productive performance. A quick overview of the document will provide farmers with guidance on these varieties.
The high cost of misting systems and their use for only temporary climate control during the growing season do not allow for optimal return on investment, which is why they have begun to be used as equipment for applying phytosanitary products.
During the 2020/2021 crop year, IFAPA characterized the productivity of a group of 12 varieties selected from those currently available on the market. The objective of this study is to study and demonstrate the differences in production-related parameters between the tested varieties.
During the 2023/2024 crop year, yield-related traits were analyzed in 16 strawberry varieties from different breeding programs grown in four cultivation systems in the Huelva growing region: conventional cultivation, cultivation without soil disinfection, soilless cultivation, and organic cultivation. The results obtained are presented in this paper.
During the spring of 2014, watermelon plants in a greenhouse located in the province of Almería exhibited symptoms similar to those induced by Melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV), such as necrosis of fruit, leaves, and stems.
Within the Andalusian Agricultural Experimentation Network (RAEA), during the 2017/2018 campaign, IFAPA characterized, both at the agronomic and quality levels, a group of 12 varieties selected from those currently available on the market from different improvement programs.
Within the Andalusian Agricultural Experimentation Network (RAEA), during the 2018/2019 campaign, IFAPA characterized, both at the agronomic and quality levels, a group of 12 varieties selected from those currently available on the market from different improvement programs.
Continuing the series of projects initiated in the 2007 campaign, this trial network is conducting an agronomic evaluation of the most widely used commercial strawberry varieties in Huelva. These varieties are grown using conventional cultivation systems and planted on two dates: early (October 9) and standard (October 23).
Continuing the series of projects initiated in the 2007 campaign, this trial network is conducting an agronomic evaluation of the most widely used commercial strawberry varieties in Huelva. These varieties are grown using soilless cultivation systems and planted on two dates: early (October 10) and standard (October 22).
As a result of the efficient implementation of an increasing number of breeding programs, a wide range of strawberry varieties is now available. Given this broad offering, fruit productivity and quality are key parameters for producers and technicians when selecting varieties to grow, with quality being the main parameter for consumers.
To adapt the volume of phytosanitary mixture to crop development, a series of tools (tables and graphs) have been developed to estimate it for greenhouse tomatoes, based on easily measurable geometric parameters of the plant mass and the treatment equipment used. This document presents these tools and explains their use.
Every year, IFAPA, within the Andalusian Agricultural Experimentation Network (RAEA), carries out agronomic and quality characterization of different strawberry varieties in different cultivation systems. This study aims to generate information that can be useful in facilitating varietal selection given the current wide range of available varieties.
Every year, the Agricultural Research and Training Institute (Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Sustainable Development, Regional Government of Andalusia) carries out, within the Andalusian Agricultural Experimentation Network, an agronomic and quality characterization of different strawberry varieties in different cultivation systems.
An increasing number of companies are developing improvement programs to obtain strawberry varieties for production in the province of Huelva and other areas with similar characteristics.
Given the critical legal situation regarding chemically derived active ingredients primarily used as soil disinfectants for strawberries, it is necessary to continue working on developing physical/biological disinfestation techniques (such as biosolarization/biofumigation) that will provide farmers with potential tools for this aspect of the crop, in the event of a ban or restriction on the use
Given the critical legal situation regarding the active ingredients primarily used as soil disinfectants for strawberry production, it is necessary to evaluate and promote other chemical tools that allow for effective soil disinfestation, or to innovate in the application of some already known ones to increase their effectiveness.
In response to the need for viable alternatives for Andalusian farmers, IFAPA is continuing its network of rapeseed (Brassica napus) trials, aiming to provide farmers with answers on various aspects related to cultivation techniques, the performance of new varieties (Clearfield), the efficacy of new herbicides, disease resistance, and disease control treatments.
Given the critical legal situation regarding chemically derived active ingredients, primarily used as soil disinfestants in strawberry cultivation, it is necessary to continue researching physical/biological disinfestation alternatives that provide farmers with potential tools for this aspect of the crop, in the event of a ban or restriction on the use of currently used options.
