In this study we evaluate the effects of six types of fertilization: no fertilizer, lime, manure, lime + phosphorus, lime + phosphorus + boron and manure + inorganic fertilizer; and two types of pasture: spontaneous vegetation and sown pasture, on soil pH and micronutrient concentrations in herbage of pastures established in the NE of Portugal. The results showed that there were higher levels of Cu in the ferti...
Afforestation of abandoned agricultural lands has been the main change in land use over the past decade in Europe. However, the impact of tree species and understorey management on production and plant diversity over the medium- and long-term has not been thoroughly studied. This paper aims to evaluate the effects of an afforestation of Pinus radiata D. Don and Betula alba L. on soil pH, understorey production ...
Many traditional land-use systems in Europe involved agroforestry in the pre-industrial era, but, over the years, increased mechanization led to the development of increasingly specialized crop, animal and wood production systems. As a consequence, the area under agroforestry declined in many regions of Europe, and agroforestry systems became confined to situations where understorey primary production is restri...
O sistema agro-pecuário é o sistema de agricultura dominante nas regiões de montanha do nordeste de Portugal entre os 400 e 1200 m de altitude. O funcionamento deste sistema reside tradicionalmente na produção cerealífera e na produção animal, essencialmente bovinos de raças autótones. Contudo, a descida dos preços dos cereais na última década e o aumento dos preços dos fatores de produção, tem levado a uma dim...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of six types of soil fertility management: no fertiliser (NF), lime inputs (Ca), mineral fertilisation combined with hming (CaP (lime and phosphorous), CaPB (lime, phosphorous and boron), manure (M), and manure+lime+mineral fertilisation (MCaPB), and two types of pasture (unsown and sown) on DM yield, botanical composition and nutrients content of pasture during t...
Silvopastoral systems can contribute to the mitigation of climate change by functioning as sinks for greenhouse gases better than exclusively agricultural systems. Tree species, density, and an adequate management of the pasture carrying capacity contribute to the capacity of carbon sequestration. In this study, the capacities for carbon sequestration in silvopastoral systems that were established with two diff...
