The impact of integrated and organic systems on tomato yield in protected environments

Abstract

The chapter examines the effects of integrated and organic farming systems on tomato yield in protected environments. It emphasises sustainable agriculture practices and their influence on nutritional and economic value. The study uses a two-factorial design comparing two tomato hybrids under both systems. Results show significant variability between systems and hybrids, with organic production yielding slightly higher outputs. The research underscores the role of ecological methods in increasing health safety and sustainable food production
