In the 2005-2006 growing season, eight varieties of faba bean, pea and lupin were compared in two organic farms, located in two regions of Central Italy (Tuscany and Marche), to evaluate their adaptation to local environment and agronomic performance in terms of grain yield and competitive ability against weeds. Pea showed a higher grain production than faba bean and lupin, which were negatively effected by the environmental conditions during winter 2005 and spring 2006. Time of seeding seems to be very important for the competitive ability against weed of the different varieties. In Tuscany the lupin Italian variety Multitalia, the only one Italian variety, obtained interesting performance in terms of grain yield and weed competition, although the spring... |

This work evaluates the possibility to substitute external soya bean, a high risk GMO alimentary source, with other legumes produced on farm, such as sweet lupin, protein pea and field bean, as alternative protein source in the formulation of diet in organic dairy cattle nutrition. In 2005/2007 periods both the field and feeding trials were carried out in an organic dairy farm in Tuscany. The performances of grain legumes crops were evaluated in terms of grain yield and quality of grains. The alimentary experiment was carried out on dairy cattle fed with two diets: A with extruded soya bean and B with bitter lupin + field bean + high protein pea. In the field trial the Italian sweet lupin varieties (Multitalia) were the most interesting for CP production... |

The research is aimed at implementing a methodology in order to estimate the sustainability of an agricultural system, through the use of Agro-ecological and Sustainability Indicators. The methodology is applied to three stockless, experimental agricultural systems, part of a long-term experiment (MOLTE) managed with diverse typologies (old organic, new organic vs conventional). The results derived from the three different management systems are estimated by considering crop rotation and efficiency in terms of energetic, macro-element (N, P, K) and organic matter flow. These are related to the landscape and biodiversity system, as well as the soil and the environmental system. The research shows that the agro-ecosystems managed with the organic agriculture... |

In 2005, huge project of integrated re-search on organic animal husbandry was initiated in Italy. This research combines, for the first time in Italy, various disciplines in order to affront existing problems in the animal organic sector. The research will be conducted on 19 farms, located across South-ern, Central and Northern Italy, in order to fully rep-resent the climatic environments of the Italian penin-sula. The topics investigated range from a complete substitution of soy in animal feed to avoid GMOs, to the reduction of micotoxin contamination risks, to pasture improvement and to the use of animal breeds more adapted to organic production. The project duration will be 3 years, and is expected to provide Italian organic farm breeders the... |

To assess the sustainability of the agricultural sectors of three farming systems of the Province of Massa (Tuscany, Italy) the analysis was performed on agro-environmental and economic aspects of 5 farms with different management systems: conventional and organic. The agro-environmental sustainability was measured through indicators of the soil, water, air and landscape-biodiversity. Economic indicators was carried out by detecting economic synthesis. The result shows that the analysed farms reach a good level of sustainability with regard to economic aspects and have positive impact on the environment in particular when managed as organic. |
