Abstract

Currently, climate change combined with intensification and abandonment threatens the productivity of traditional olive groves. Cover crops are one of the solutions promoted by the CAP to manage soil fertility but they might compete with olive trees for resources.The main objective of this experiment was to provide useful indications about the sustainable management of multi-functional olive groves under rainfed conditions by analysing the effects on olive plants physiology and production.
