Ten-Year Impact of Cover Crops on Soil Organic Matter Quantity and Quality in Semi-Arid Vineyards

Soil organic matter depletion is a significant concern in agricultural soils, impacting crucial aspects of ecosystem health, especially soil properties such as fertility and soil moisture retention. Adopting sustainable soil management practices, such as cover crops, can mitigate this issue. In this study, we analyzed the soil organic carbon (SOC) content and quality in vineyards using two distinct management methods: permanent spontaneous cover crops and conventional tillage. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) was quantified and chemically characterized using UV–visible spectroscopy. Our results showed an increase of 4.7 Mg C/ha in the carbon stock (50 cm depth) after 10 years of implementing vegetation covers compared with tilled soil. Additionally, cover crop management increased less humified soluble carbon in surface soil layers, while tillage transformed the solubilized carbon. This finding is important because tilled soil becomes more accessible to microbial degradation and leaching, which, in the long term, leads to a SOM content decrease. In conclusion, an increase in carbon stock was observed when using cover crops due to the incorporation of fresh organic matter, whereas tilled soils showed a depletion of carbon stock, including the mobilization of more stable carbonThis research was partially funded by the European Joint Programme on Agricultural SoilManagement (EJP Soil

Empleo de cubiertas vegetales en olivar: repercusión sobre el suelo, la erosión y la calidad del Aceite de Oliva Virgen

La pérdida de suelo por erosión es un uno de los mayores problemas ambientales a escala global, siendo el proceso de degradación del suelo más extendido mundialmente. Los países europeos de la cuenca mediterránea son especialmente susceptibles a la erosión hídrica, con altas tasas de pérdida de suelo debido a una menor cobertura vegetal y mayor erosividad de las lluvias. Estas pérdidas de suelo son especialmente importantes en cultivos leñosos como el viñedo, olivar y almendro. Las cubiertas vegetales (CC) son una de las técnicas más eficientes de manejo sostenible del territorio para controlar la erosión y regenerar suelos degradados. El principal objetivo de esta Tesis Doctoral ha sido la evaluación del efecto de distintas CC (dos anuales, de cebada y leguminosa, y una permanente, Brachypodium distachyon) frente al laboreo, sobre las pérdidas de suelo por erosión, la variación de distintos parámetros edáficos y la producción y calidad del Aceite de Oliva Virgen (VOO) en un olivar de la variedad Cornicabra en condiciones de secano, desarrollado sobre margas yesíferas y clima semiárido. Se evaluó con el radioisótopo 137Cs la pérdida de suelo en un olivar a nivel de microcuenca, obteniéndose una pérdida media de 32,6 Mg ha-1 año-1 a escala media de tiempo. Para comparar las pérdidas de suelo de las distintas CC frente al tratamiento control se utilizaron microparcelas (1 m2) recogiendo los sedimentos generados por cada lluvia entre Noviembre de 2010 y Mayo de 2014. La pérdida de suelo del tratamiento control fue de 6,8 Mg ha-1 año-1, siendo reducida eficazmente con el empleo de CC un 40, 60 y 80 % para la leguminosa, la cebada y el Brachypodium respectivamente. La única cubierta que redujo la pérdida de suelo al límite sostenible fue la de Brachypodium. Junto a los sedimentos, compuestos principalmente por arcillas, se arrastraron importantes cantidades de materia orgánica (con una tasa de enriquecimiento de 2,4) y nutrientes (sobre todo de Mg, K y P). Los suelos yesíferos son frágiles y fácilmente degradables, por lo que las potenciales mejoras de las CC anuales sobre este tipo de suelos se han visto ralentizadas, siendo tres años de manejo insuficientes para observar mejoras en la mayoría de los parámetros estudiados. La cubierta de Brachypodium sí mejoró las propiedades del suelo: aumentó el carbono secuestrado en el suelo (1 Mg ha-1 año-1 respecto al control), incrementó el N del suelo hasta 1,44% frente al 1,28% del control, mejoró la estructura del horizonte superficial (con agregados entre un 20 y 50% más estables) y redujo la resistencia a la penetración por debajo de 20 cm a pesar de una mayor compactación superficial. Además, tanto las CC anuales como la cubierta permanente han incrementado la capacidad de almacenamiento de agua en el suelo a 30 cm de profundidad frente al control (entre un 36 y un 55% más). En cuanto a la producción de aceituna y de aceite se mantuvo igual entre los cuatro tratamientos, siendo las diferencias en calidad del VOO muy pequeñas, con una ligera reducción de la acidez libre en los VOOs de las CC y una relación mayor de pigmentos clorofílicos/carotenoides. Para establecer de forma concluyente el efecto que las CC ejercen sobre la cantidad y calidad del aceite se necesitan más años de estudio, teniendo que ser incluidos parámetros nutricionales y del estado hídrico de los árboles para lograr una visión más completa. La reticencia de los agricultores madrileños a emplear CC, tiene que ser salvada por la Administración Regional. El Gobierno de la Comunidad de Madrid cuenta en la actualidad con los mecanismos necesarios para el incentivo de las CC a través de ayudas directas (Pago Básico y Pago Verde) o mediante ayudas al desarrollo rural

Methodology for edaphoclimatic assessment of olive cultivation: Application to the area of the quality mark “Olive Oil Madrid” (Spain)OLIVE OIL MADRID” (SPAIN)

The present work proposes a methodology to select the most suitable areas for olive cultivation under rainfed conditions in the Madrid Region (Central Spain). This methodology is based on an analysis of the significant edaphoclimatic parameters that characterize the study region matched with the crop requirements of the olive tree, in the framework of the Land Suitability Classification system. A key component of the proposed methodology is the selection and rating of edaphic and climatic parameters as limitations associated with olive crop requirements in rainfed conditions. The climatic parameters considered are: average temperature of the absolute minimum of the coldest month (during dormancy and growth periods), average temperature of the minimum in the phenological stages of flowering, growth and ripening, mean relative humidity in spring and autumn, and average annual sunshine hours. The edaphic parameters considered (both extrinsic and intrinsic to soil profiles) include: slope, stoniness and rockiness, drainage, presence of perched water table, infiltration rate, effective depth, available water retention capacity (AWC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), pH, base saturation, active lime, salinity, Ca/K antagonism and organic matter content. For each of these parameters, five levels of severity have been established, from "very unfavorable" (excluded) to "very favorable" (optimal), establishing specific limits within each of these ranges to compare them with the requirements of olive trees. The final phase of the evaluation is the allocation of Suitability Categories to certain areas of interest for olive growing, established according to soil and climate criteria, on the basis of Land Mapping Units defined on the studied territory. The interest of an edaphoclimatic assessment in this geographical area lies in its marginal location with respect to the main olive groves in the Iberian Peninsula, and in the variety of existing climatic and edaphic conditions, some of them generally considered as limiting the cultivation of the olive grove, as well as in an evident current expansion of this crop. The most relevant edaphic limitations derive especially from a low available water capacity, and locally, by factors such as acid pH, Ca/K antagonism or high active lime. The exclusionary limitations derive, to a great extent, from climatic characteristics, associated with low temperatures combined with high relative air humidity. This methodology is expected to serve as a basis for the delimitation of new areas on which the implantation of the olive grove may be foreseen within a period, like the present one, of remarkable expansion of this crop.No presente trabalho propõem-se uma metodologia para selecionar as áreas mais adequadas para a cultura da oliveira em condições de sequeiro na Região de Madrid (centro de Espanha). Esta metodologia baseia-se na análise de parâmetros edafoclimáticos considerados significativos e que caracterizam a região em estudo em concordância com os requisitos da cultura da oliveira no quadro do sistema Land Suitability Classification. A componente chave da metodologia proposta é a seleção e classificação dos parâmetros edáficos e climáticos limitantes associados aos requisitos da cultura da oliveira em condições de sequeiro. Os parâmetros climáticos considerados incluem: temperatura média das mínimas absolutas do mês mais frio (durante os períodos de dormência e desenvolvimento), temperatura média das mínimas nos estádios fenológicos de floração, crescimento e amadurecimento, humidade relativa média na primavera e outono, e média anual do número de horas de sol. Os parâmetros edáficos considerados (intrínsecos e extrínsecos ao perfil do solo) incluem: declive, pedregosidade e afloramentos rochosos, drenagem, presença de toalha freática superficial, taxa de infiltração, profundidade efetiva, capacidade de retenção de água disponível (AWC), capacidade de troca catiónica (CEC), pH, saturação em catiões, calcário ativo, salinidade, antagonismo Ca/K e matéria orgânica. Para cada um destes parâmetros foram estabelecidos cinco níveis de severidade, desde “muito desfavorável” (exclusivo) a “muito favorável” (ótimo), estabelecendo limites específicos dentro de cada uma destas gamas para os comparar com os requisitos do olival. A fase final de avaliação é a alocação de categorias a determinadas áreas de interesse para a cultura da oliveira, de acordo com os critérios de solo e clima, tendo por base a aplicação da metodologia proposta com base nas unidades territoriais (Land Mapping Units) estabelecidas para o território em estudo. O interesse de uma avaliação edafoclimática nesta área geográfica radica na sua localização marginal relativamente aos principais olivais da Península Ibérica e na variedade das condições climáticas e edáficas existentes. Algumas destas características são geralmente consideradas como limitantes da cultura da oliveira, assim como da sua expansão atual na região. As limitações edáficas mais relevantes derivam especialmente da baixa capacidade de água disponível e, com carácter mais local, de fatores como o pH ácido, antagonismo Ca/K e elevada concentração de calcário ativo. As limitações exclusivas são função, em grande medida, das características climáticas associadas a temperaturas baixas combinadas com elevada humidade relativa do ar. Espera-se que esta metodologia possa servir de base para a delimitação de novas áreas de expansão do olival nas quais a implantação desta cultura possa ser recomendada dentro de um curto período de tempo, como o presente.El presente trabajo propone una metodología para la selección de las áreas más adecuadas para el cultivo del olivo bajo condiciones de secano en el contexto geográfico de la Comunidad de Madrid (España). Esta metodología se basa en un análisis contrastado de los parámetros edafoclimáticos significativos que caracterizan la región de estudio, en concordancia con los requerimientos del olivo como cultivo en el marco del sistema de Land Suitability Classification. Un componente clave de la metodología propuesta es la selección y clasificación de las limitaciones edafoclimáticas asociadas a los requerimientos del cultivo del olivo en secano. Los parámetros climáticos considerados incluyen: temperatura media de las mínimas absolutas del mes más frío (durante la parada vegetativa y el período de desarrollo), temperatura media de las mínimas en los estadíos fenológicos de floración, crecimiento y maduración, humedad relativa media en primavera y otoño, y promedio del número de horas de sol. Los aspectos considerados para evaluar limitaciones edáficas son: pendiente, pedregosidad y rocosidad, drenaje, presencia de capa colgada de agua, infiltración, profundidad efectiva, capacidad de retención de agua disponible (AWC), CEC, pH, saturación de bases, caliza activa, salinidad, antagonismo Ca/K y materia orgánica. Para cada uno de estos parámetros se han establecido 5 niveles de severidad, desde "muy desfavorable" (exclusivo) hasta "muy favorable" (óptimo), estableciendo límites específicos dentro de cada uno de estos rangos para compararlos con los requerimientos del olivar. La fase final de la evaluación es la asignación de categorías de aptitud a determinadas áreas de interés para el olivar, con características edafoclimáticas definidas, lo que implica la aplicación de la metodología propuesta sobre la base de unidades territoriales (Land Mapping Units) establecidas en el área objeto de estudio. El interés de una evaluación edafoclimática en esta zona geográfica radica en su ubicación marginal con respecto a los principales olivares de la Península Ibérica, y en la variedad de condiciones climáticas y edáficas existentes, algunas de ellas consideradas generalmente como limitantes del cultivo del olivar, así como en una evidente expansión actual de dicho cultivo en la región. Las limitaciones edáficas más relevantes derivan especialmente de una baja capacidad de agua disponible y, con carácter más local, por factores como la acidez, el antagonismo Ca/K o la elevada caliza activa. Las limitaciones excluyentes se derivan, en gran medida, de características climáticas, asociadas a bajas temperaturas y elevada humedad. La principal utilidad de la metodología propuesta se basa, principalmente, en la delimitación de nuevas áreas sobre las que se puede orientar la implantación del olivar en un periodo como el actual, de notable expansión de este cultivo
