The climate change that plagues the world is causing extended periods of water shortage. This situation is forcing farmers in the region of Murcia in Spain to modernize their irrigation systems to optimize use of the scarce water they have and seek a circular water economy using the recovered water. Moreover, an associated problem is the need for energy that these facilities require in order to pressurize the required water. The use of photovoltaic generation contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Food produced in this region tends to have guaranteed markets in Europe and, geographically, due to the high quality of phytosanitary controls and traceability during their marketing, their optimal cultivation, and selection and labelling is verified, specifying valuable information such as: collection date, origin, the use of organic fertilizers among others. To maintain market access, it is important to continue implementing other environmental improvements, i.e., reductions in either hydro or carbon footprints. Previous studies have failed to include the prospect of environmental use of isolated facilities to replace existing consumption, seeking the monetarization of the facility as well as prioritizing the reduction of GHG. Previous studies have failed to include the perspective of environmental use of isolated photovoltaic installations, based on existing consumption, thus, going beyond the monetarization of the facility, to prioritize the reduction of GHG applied in practice by environmentally sensitized farmers. This study was conducted in an existing facility with great technical complexity and three different sources of water supply, over 1500 plots and an altitude range in plots and reservoirs of more than 400 m.

Phytochemicals and antioxidant properties of red sweet pepper cv Topepo grown in soil amended with different organic fertilizers were compared with that grown in unamended soil. Organic fertilizers are an environmentally friendly alternative to recovery infertile soils that resulted from the intensified agricultural practices in red Topepo production. The aim was to discriminate the effects of organic fertilizers one from each other on the quality of red Topepo to find out the better sustainable fertilization practice for its cultivation. Results showed that compost from vegetable residues (CV) enhanced the synthesis of total phenols, flavonoids, ascorbic acid, vitamin E, carotenoids, anthocyanins, as well as carbohydrates, antioxidant activities, and aroma profiling, compared to horse manure (HD), compost from olive pomace (CO), and control (CTR). The results indicated a specificity between the quality of red Topepo and compost composition, highlighting that vegetable residues increased the synthesis of secondary metabolites, enhancing sustainably, the nutraceutical, sensorial, and economic value of red Topepo. The fertilizer composition resulted largely responsible for the synthesis of bioactive compounds, flavor, and aroma of this fruit.

A field experiment was conducted at the farmer’s field of Sutiakhali, Mymensingh Sadar Upazilla, Mymensingh, during the period from April, 2009 to March, 2010 to investigate the effect of organic fertilizers along with half chemical fertilizers on the growth, bulb and flower yield of tuberose cv. single. The experiment consisted of four different sources of fertilizers viz., (i) recommended chemical fertilizers @ 400, 300, 300 and 100 kg ha-1 of urea, TSP, MP and gypsum, respectively; (ii) vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 along with half of chemical fertilizers; (iii) poultry litter @ 20 t ha-1 along with half of chemical fertilizers and (iv) cowdung @ 20 t ha-1 along with half of chemical fertilizers. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Results revealed that plant height, leaf number plant-1, leaf length and breadth and number of side shoots plant-1, bulb production plant-1, bulb length, bulb diameter and bulb yield both per plant and per hectare, rachis length, spike length and diameter, number of florets spike-1 and flower yield both per spike and per hectare were greater in organic fertilizers along with half chemical fertilizers than absolute use of chemical fertilizers. The highest bulb and flower yield both per plant and per hectare were recorded in poultry manures followed by cowdung. The bulb and flower yields were higher in poultry manures might be due to increased side shoots number, bulb size and flowers plant-1. In contrast, the lowest bulb and flower yields were recorded in chemical fertilizers due to production of fewer side bulb and flowers plant-1.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v4i2.10135J.

Цель исследования: совершенствование отдельных элементов технологии возделывания новых отечественных гибридов перца сладкого для обеспечения получения высоких урожаев экологически безопасной продукции. Исследования проводили в 2016–2019 годах в Селекционно-семеноводческом центре «Ростовский» Агрохолдинга «Поиск» в Ростовской области. Сумма осадков за период с марта по октябрь составляла 268 мм. Сумма активных температур свыше 10 °С превышала 3200 °С. Почвы в опытах – чернозем обыкновенный. Содержание гумуса в пахотном слое – 4,2%. Реакция почвенной среды – щелочная, рНKCl - 7,8. Перец выращивали рассадным методом. Высадка рассады в открытый грунт – в первой декаде мая. Предшественник – огурец. Орошение капельное с системой фертигации. Схема опытов включала три варианта: контроль (традиционная технология с применением комплексных балластных удобрений и химических препаратов для защиты растений); комбинированная технология с применением комплексных балластных удобрений в основное внесение, комплексных безбалластных водорастворимых удобрений в подкормки с сочетанием биологических и химических средств защиты растений; биологизированная технология с применением органических удобрений в основное внесение, посевом на сидераты промежуточных злаковых культур, применением комплексных безбалластных водорастворимых удобрений в подкормки и биологических средств защиты растений. Материалом для исследований служили гибриды перца F1Илона и F1 Байкал. В результате исследований установлено, что по комплексу показателей преимущество перед другими имела комбинированная технология производства. Возделывание новых отечественных гибридов перца сладкого F1 Илона и F1 Байкал по комбинированной технологии экономически выгодно. Урожайность гибридов превышала 70 т/га, при себестоимости менее 6 р/кг и уровне рентабельности более 110%. The demand for fresh pepper fruits and processed products is constantly expansion in Russia. In commodity production, pepper hybrids are increasingly being used. The cultivation of hybrids should take into account their biological characteristics and contribute to the realization of their productive potential. The aim of the study is to improve individual elements of the technology of cultivating new domestic hybrids of sweet peppers to ensure high yields of environmentally friendly products.
