 SESSIONS

Multi-functional Agriculture - Agriculture as a Resource
for Energy and Environmental Preservation

session1Agriculture to preserve environment

Land and Water Conservation:
  • Erosion control
  • Point and diffuse pollution control
    (Phytodepuration, Phytoremediation and other techniques)
  •  Agronomic techniques for preserving ecosystem services

Technologies  for Biodiversity conservation:

  • Ecological infrastructure – the interaction between natural resources and agriculture
  • Vegetation and Seed bank dynamic

 

session 2New frontiers in crop production

  • Functional foods and  nutraceuticals
  • Fine chemicals and biomaterials from agriculture
  • Biomass and energy production
  • Genomics for a more sustainable agriculture

session 3Climate change and agriculture

Assessment of the vulnerability of agricultural systems and  areas:

  • Monitoring change (remote sensing, soil water balance)
  • Evaluation of weeds, pests and diseases under new climatic scenarios

Adaptation:

  • Crop modeling  (phenology, crop growth, scaling from field to region)
  • Crop water use (irrigation scheduling, soil moisture measurement)

Greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture
