Soil and water-efficient management are key factors in ensuring the olive sector's sustainable production practices. The use of compost based on olive waste (alperujo) as fertilizer could enhance ecosystem services while the need to transition to a zero-waste approach based on a circular economy is achieved. The present work includes a...

Intensification of olive production could suppose an increase of natural resources consumption as well as an acceleration of soil degradation. Studies of soil and trees combining different strategies of water management and fertilization to solve these drawbacks are scarce and contradictory. The aim of this work was to describe the effect of...

When considering defcit irrigation, the most resistant period to water stress in olive crops is during the pit hardening. However, the determination of this period and the impact that water stress has on its onset or duration have not been clearly established. The aim of this work is to describe the impact of water stress on three processes...
