Poster ; In Galicia (northwestern Spain), the soils tend to be acidic mainly due to the regionâs humid climate, the prevalence of subtractive systems, frequent fires and, often, acidic parent material which can limit the tree growth and the pasture production in the silvopastoral systems. Therefore, it is advisable to carry out management techniques and fertilisation to improve soil fertility as well as the ...
Poster ; In silvopastoral systems grazing animals coexist with tree production. In these systems there is a great competition between tree and herbaceous plants for light, water and soil nutrients, which affect herbage forage production and quality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the herbage forage production and quality (protein, calcium and phosphorus levels) under Pinus radiata D. Don (pine) and Betu...
Poster ; Inorganic fertilization has a clear impact on farm economy and on carbon footprint. Input reduction of mineral fertilizers will reduce the impact of this activity on GHG emissions as fertilizers produced in the farms should not be transported. This paper aims at reducing the inputs of nitrogen in a plantation of Juglans hybrid carried out in 2004. The experiment started in 2010 when six-year old trees...
Poster ; The establishment of silvopastoral systems in which trees, animals and pasture are integrated within the same area is promoted by the EU (Council Regulation 1698/2005 and 1305/2013) because these systems diversify and sustain production with increased social, economic and environmental benefits for land users at several levels. However, the environmental and economic benefits of silvopastoral systems ...
Poster ; Pig traditional production systems in Galicia (NW Spain) are based on seasonal resources us like chestnut and pastures. The Breeders' Association of the autochthonous Celtic breed of pigs (ASOPORCEL) has developed a novel system within the traditional Galicia grazed forest areas in order to preserve landscape quality and biologic diversity, minimizing therefore the environmental impact of pig producti...
