On May 12, a group of researchers from the University of Jaen, led by the coordinator of the SUSTAINOLIVE project, Roberto García Ruíz, visited the organic olive farm “Los Almendros” (Granada, Spain) to take samples of aerial biomass in the experimental sites where different combinations of cover crops seeds had been previously sown.
The purpose of this field experience is to determine which of the seed combinations produces a greater plant cover and, therefore, provides the olive grove a better pool of ecosystem services (improvement in water retention capacity, increased soil fertility , erosion prevention, etc.).
