Analysis of microclimate and cucumber fruit yield in a screenhouse and an evaporatively cooled greenhouse in a semi-arid location
(2018)The microclimate and cucumber crop response in a screenhouse and in an evaporatively cooled greenhouse were studied in Oman during winter/spring and spring/summer cultivation periods. Measurements were carried out in two ... -
Assessment of the impact of the fumigant dimethyl disulfide on the dynamics of major fungal plant pathogens in greenhouse soils
(2016)Soil fumigants constitute a major tool for the control of soil borne fungal plant pathogens in protected crops. Dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) is a novel soil fumigant used either alone or in combination with other fumigants ... -
Cereal yield gaps across Europe
(2018)Europe accounts for around 20% of the global cereal production and is a net exporter of ca. 15% of that production. Increasing global demand for cereals justifies questions as to where and by how much Europe's production ... -
A Comparison between Variable Deficit Irrigation and Farmers’ Irrigation Practices under Three Fertilization Levels in Cotton Yield (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Using Precision Agriculture, Remote Sensing, Soil Analyses, and Crop Growth Modeling
(2022)The major global challenge for the coming decades will be increasing crop production with less water consumption. Precision agriculture (PA) and variable deficit irrigation (VDI) are management strategies that help farmers ... -
Effects of Alternative Fertilization and Irrigation Practices on the Energy Use and Carbon Footprint of Canning Peach Orchards
(2022)Throughout peach orchards in Greece, plant protection, fertilization and irrigation are often conducted empirically, negatively affecting energy use efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG emissions). The aim of this ... -
Evaluation of the use of LIDAR laser scanner to map pruning wood in vineyards and its potential for management zones delineation
(2018)Vine vigour assessment has been a major concern of precision viticulture studies in order to identify areas of uniform vine performance within vineyards. Moreover, the counting and weighing of winter dormant canes is ... -
Exploring precision farming scenarios using fuzzy cognitive maps
(2017)One of the major problems confronted in precision agriculture is uncertainty about how exactly would yield in a certain area respond to decreased application of certain nutrients. One way to deal with this type of uncertainty ... -
Growth and productivity of Salvia officinalis L. under Mediterranean climatic conditions depends on biofertilizer, nitrogen fertilization, and sowing density
(2021)Salvia officinalis L. is an important medicinal herb of high soil and climatic adaptability and thus the main goal of the current study is to investigate the effect of mycorrhizae, the plant density and the nitrogen ... -
How extraction method affects yield, fatty acids composition and bioactive properties of cardoon seed oil?
(2018)Cardoon (Cynara cardunculus L.; Asteraceae) is a perennial species with several uses, especially in the industry of energy production, while it is classified as a non-conventional energy crop within the European Union (EU). ... -
Innovative Nitrogen Fertilizers Effect on Cotton Cultivation
(2020)Fertilizer enhancement is determined by chemical and physical characteristics, environmental safety, and mechanical stress stabilization, etc. In order to assess the reaction of cotton cultivation to distinct kinds of ... -
Interference of weeds in vegetable crop cultivation, in the changing climate of Southern Europe with emphasis on drought and elevated temperatures: A review
(2018)It is challenging to predict the changes in weed flora that may occur because of changes in global climate. Limited data are available on the effect of climate change and drought conditions on weed flora and their ... -
Phenotypic characterization and quality traits of Greek garlic (Allium sativum L.) germplasm cultivated at two different locations
(2019)In the present study, we examined the phenotypic diversity of Greek garlic (Allium sativum L.) genotypes using morphological descriptors derived from IPGRI and UPOV. Thirty-four garlic genotypes were cultivated at two ... -
Weed flora and seed yield in quinoa crop (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) as affected by tillage systems and fertilization practices
(2015)The effects of tillage system and fertilization regimes on weed flora in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) were evaluated by means of two field experiments in 2011 and 2012. The experiments were laid out in a split-plot ... -
Yield and silymarin content in milk thistle (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.) fruits affected by the nitrogen fertilizers
(2021)Milk thistle (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.) is a common weed that has been introduced as a medicinal plant for silymarin production. This renders it important to optimize cultivation techniques, including fertilization. ...
