Espaldero DOV – A New Training System Design for Mechanical Raisin Harvest

Farmers around the word are increasingly interested in the adoption of mechanization methods, especially in dryon-vine raisin production. The lack of profitability in the raisin industry is a problem that demands the development of new technologies that allow mechanical raisin harvesting, leading to reduced investment. The aims of this research were to assess the performance […]

Nematode populations affect grapevine seedlings: Understanding the host-parasite interaction is critical for preventing negative effects

The initial population density of nematodes is a primary factor that determines the damage caused to a crop. However, this factor has not been investigated adequately on grapevine. An investigation of the effects of initial population densities of Meloidogyne incognita on grapevine (cuttings) was carried out using a completely randomized design. The parameters recorded included […]

Effects of Bt soybean on biodiversity are limited to target species and host-specific parasitoids in La Pampa province, Argentina

Bt crops were incorporated in South America more than 20 years ago and their use has increased sharply since then. However, the potential negative environmental effects are still a concern, specifically, the impacts on nontarget arthropod species. The objective of this work was to determine if the effects of Bt soybean are limited to the […]

First steps towards the spectral discrimination of diseases in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)

One of the main causes of yield and quality loss in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) crops are fungal diseases. Understanding the severity of these diseases is essential to achieve proper phytosanitary management. Monitoring is the practice used to assess the health status of crops. This is necessary for diagnosing and quantifying the level of attack, […]
