Vines and olives are two crops adapted to the semi-arid and arid environment. Although these crops can grow and crops can grow and produce adequately under restrictive irrigation. Climate change requires the development of improved irrigation and water use efficiency (WUE) strategies.
This general hypothesis is divided into the following main objectives: To study the WUE at different scales ranging from the leaf different scales ranging from the leaf to the canopy, from the field to the region.
To optimize water use for two Mediterranean crops (olive and grapevine) through an integrated and multidisciplinary approach. Use new technologies and remote sensing to monitor the EUA indicators that contribute to the
EUA indicators that contribute to the irrigation management process.
