Economic aspects of mulch and direct seeding- reduction of soil treatment, which changes in the operational result have to be expected? comparison of different soil treating systems (conventional tillage, mulchseeding and direct seeding). By reducing tillage savings are possible. This is shown for different crops. No Tillage Field Trials in lower Austria
Soil management effects on runoff, erosion and soil properties in an olive grove of Southern Spain. Rainfall, runoff and soil loss from 6 m × 12 m plots were recorded during 7 years (2000†“2006) in an experiment in which three different soil management systems were compared in a young olive grove installed on a heavy clay soil, near Cordoba, Southern Spain. No-tillage (NT) system, kept weed-free with herbicides, cover crop (CC) of barley, and conventional tillage (CT). Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
Hydrological and erosive response of a small catchment under olivecultivation in a vertic soil during a five-year period: Implications forsustainability Monitoring results during five hydrological years representative of the typical climate conditions in the region, in a commercial olive farm on a vertic soil with a soil management basedon limited tillage and growing of natural weed vegetation along the traffic lanes. Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
Application of the water erosion prediction project (WEPP) in olive orchards on Vertic soil with different management conditions The WEPP model was evaluated using monthly runoff and erosion data collected from an experiment in an olive orchard on a Vertic soil during four hydrological years, comparing three different soil management systems: no tillage with bare soil (NT), conventional tillage (CT), and cover crop (CC). These three systems differed greatly in average annual runoff and soil losses. Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
Curve number values for olive orchards under different soil management A physically based runoff model for olive orchards at a hillslope scale was used to generate rainfall†“runoff relationships for different scenarios of soil type (four), tree size (two), tree spacing (two), antecedent soil moisture (three), and soil management (11) for a 140-m-long and 5% steep hillslope. Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
The influence of cover crops and tillage on water and sediment yield, and on nutrient, and organic matter losses in an olive orchard on a sandy loam soil Rainfall, runoff, sediments, nutrient and organic carbon losses from 8 × 60 m plots were measured during four hydrological years (2002†“2007) in a field trial, in which two different soil management systems were used to confirm this hypothesis: a cover crop (CC), and conventional tillage (CT) near Seville, southern Spain. Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
Francia Martí­nez, J. R., Durán Zuazo, V. H., & Martí­nez Raya, A. (2006). Environmental impact from mountainous olive orchards under different soil-management systems (SE Spain). Soil erosion, runoff and nutrient-loss patterns over a two-year period (1999-2000) were monitored in erosion plots on a mountainside with olive (Olea europaea cv. Picual) trees under three different types of soil management: (1) non-tillage with barley (Hordeum vulgare) strips of 4 m width (BS); (2) conventional tillage (CT); (3) non-tillage without plant strips (NT). The erosion plots, located in Lanjaron (Alpujarras) on the southern flank of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in south-eastern Spain, had 30% slope Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
The role of ancillary benefits on the value of agricultural soils carbon sequestration programmes: Evidence from a latent class approach to Andalusian olive groves. The research assesses society's willingness to pay using a discrete choice analysis for a soil management programme in Andalusian olive groves identifying different groups based on preference heterogeneity. The results show that soil carbon sequestration in olive groves provides net social value and can be a cheap and cost-effective way of combating climate change. Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
Evaluating the demand for carbon sequestration in olive grove soils as a strategy toward mitigating climate change Estimation of the economic value of carbon sequestration in olive grove soils derived from the implementation of different agricultural management systems. Carbon sequestration is considered jointly with other environmental co-benefits, such as enhanced erosion prevention and increased biodiversity.

Medidas beneficiosas para las aves ligadas a medios agrí­cola - Sugerencias para su diseño y aplicación en NATURA 2000, en el marco de la programación de desarrollo rural 2007-2013 Para avanzar en la línea marcada por las directrices europeas de desarrollo rural respecto a la conservación de la biodiversidad, lo más idóneo hubiera sido establecer desde la base, en el Plan Estratégico nacional, los sistemas prioritarios para la conservación ligados a medios agrícolas en España, orientando la elaboración de los programas regionales de desarrollo rural, y garantizando así la preservación de estos agrosistemas en el conjunto del territorio. En opinión de SEO/BirdLife, en lo que se refiere a biodiversidad de la avifauna, estos sistemas prioritarios serían las zonas pseudoesteparias de agricultura de secano, los pastizales, las dehesas y los arrozales costeros. Cover Crops and No-Tillage in an Olive Grove (Andalusia, Spain)
EU policies for olive farming. Unsustainable on all counts Olive farming could be a model for sustainable land-use in the Mediterranean region, producing highly-valued foodstuffs and environmental benefits, while helping to maintain populations in marginal areas.
