Colorado River (Argentina) Water Crisis Scenarios and Influence on Irrigation Water Quality Conditions
(MDPI, 2023-05)The characterization and evaluation of water quality in the Valle Bonaerense del Río Colorado (VBRC), Buenos Aires, Argentina, is necessary, given the immense importance of this region for sustaining the population livelihoods ... -
Environmental and agronomic determinants of hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) seed yield in rainfed temperate agroecosystems
(Elsevier, 2023-07)Vicia villosa Roth, commonly named hairy vetch (HV), is one of the most promising cover crop (CC) legumes, commonly included in strategies aimed at increasing agriculture sustainability. Due to the generally low yield, the ... -
Synergy of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 Time Series for Cloud-Free Vegetation Water Content Mapping with Multi-Output Gaussian Processes
(MDPI, 2023-03)Optical Earth Observation is often limited by weather conditions such as cloudiness. Radar sensors have the potential to overcome these limitations, however, due to the complex radar-surface interaction, the retrieving of ... -
Quantifying Irrigated Winter Wheat LAI in Argentina Using Multiple Sentinel-1 Incidence Angles
(MDPI, 2022-11)Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data provides an appealing opportunity for all-weather day or night Earth surface monitoring. The European constellation Sentinel-1 (S1) consisting of S1-A and S1-B satellites offers a suitable ... -
Evaluation of new pasture legumes options in the Pampa-Patagonia transitional region of Argentina
(Ediciones INTA, 2022-11)Biodiversity in forage legumes adapted to semiarid-arid conditions is scarce. In the Pampa-Patagonia transitional region of Argentina (PTRA), the annual rainfall is 440 mm with annual evapotranspiration of 1690 mm. Only ... -
Natural distribution and phenotypic traits of Neltuma flexuosa var. depressa, a candidate taxon for the rehabilitation in the central arid region of Argentina
(Elsevier, 2023-02)Dryland rehabilitation in the central arid region of Argentina is urgently needed to reverse the current high levels of degradation. Neltuma flexuosa var. depressa, adapted to arid environments, gives it the potential to ... -
Seasonal mapping of irrigated winter wheat traits in Argentina with a hybrid retrieval workflow using sentinel-2 imagery
(MDPI, 2022-09-10)Earth observation offers an unprecedented opportunity to monitor intensively cultivated areas providing key support to assess fertilizer needs and crop water uptake. Routinely, vegetation traits mapping can help farmers ... -
Enhancing Sustainability in Intensive Dill Cropping: Comparative Effects of Biobased Fertilizers vs. Inorganic Commodities on Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Crop Yield, and Soil Properties
(MDPI, 2022)The treatment and valorization of organic solid waste has become a promising alternative to increase intensive crop productivity while reducing its environmental impact. Currently, reusing improved organic waste as novel ... -
Is Dairy Effluent an Alternative for Maize Crop Fertigation in Semiarid Regions? An Approach to Agronomic and Environmental Effects
(MDPI, 2022-08)The reuse of effluents from intensive dairy farms combined with localized irrigation techniques (fertigation) has become a promising alternative to increase crop productivity while reducing the environmental impact of waste ... -
Nutrient Release Dynamics in Argentinean Pampean Soils Amended with Composts under Laboratory Conditions
(MDPI, 2022-03)Composted manure is the greatest nitrogen (N) source in organic agriculture, where the use of chemical fertilizers, except the use of rock phosphate as P source, is not allowed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ... -
Suppression of Lolium multiflorum Lam. with Vicia villosa Roth combined with residual herbicides
(Ediciones INTA, 2022-04)Lolium multiflorum Lam. (annual ryegrass) is a problematic weed species especially in no-tillage systems of the southern region of Buenos Aires province (Argentina). Increasing herbicide resistance cases have exacerbated ... -
Spontaneous Gene Flow between Cultivated and Naturalized Vicia villosa Roth Populations Increases the Physical Dormancy Seed in a Semiarid Agroecosystem
(MDPI, 2021-05)Hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) is the second most cultivated vetch worldwide being used as a forage and cover crop. As it is not domesticated, it displays several wild traits including seed dormancy. The physical seed ... -
Effects of Onion Residue, Bovine Manure Compost and Compost Tea on Soils and on the Agroecological Production of Onions
(MDPI, 2021-10)Organic solid wastes are rarely considered when planning for rural production in Argentina. Onion production in the low valley of Río Colorado (Buenos Aires) generates between 12,000 and 20,000 Mg year−1 of vegetal wastes ... -
Towards Sustainable Dairy Production in Argentina: Evaluating Nutrient and CO2 Release from Raw and Processed Farm Waste
