Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important grain legumes worldwide and represents a valuable crop for Argentina. This study aimed to phenotypically characterize 68 chickpea genotypes of diverse origins under the edaphoclimatic conditions of Valle de Lerma (Salta, Argentina), using 14 quantitative morpho-agronomic traits, which are canopy length (CL), canopy width (CW), […]

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important crop for global food security; however, the “Egg Yolk” variety is characterized by rapid postharvest sprouting, which limits its storage life and marketability. This study evaluated the effectiveness of walnut (Juglans nigra) extract as a natural inhibitor of sprouting and sprout growth in potato tubers. Four treatments were […]

Strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa) contain compounds with beneficial health effects in humans. The quality and organoleptic characteristics of the fruit depend on the genotype and environmental factors during cultivation. This study evaluated the effects of global solar radiation (GSR), average monthly air temperature (AMT), and effective heliophany (EH) on fruits of Fragaria x ananassa cvr. […]

The objectives of this study are as follows: (i) to create an index that allows us to quantify the degree of extensivity of the livestock sector; and (ii) to represent the trends of extensive livestock farming in Spain. The quantification of extensive livestock farming is imperative for the analysis and assessment of public policies’ impact. […]
