Further, in the semiarid settíng of the Mediterranean basin, short bursts of intense rainfall lead to erosión forming fissures and ditches. To resolve these problems from a perspeetive of sustainable agriculture, it was decided to implant or to propitíate the growth of plant covers between rows of trees that would fulfil the following requirements: control erosión by their creeping type of growth, adapt to the sandy soil and rainfall regime of the semiarid Mediterranean región, have the capacity to fix nitrogen, and be annual plants of rapid growth, capable of autoseeding. The following species were selected for the purpose: vetch (Vicia sativa), seeded in November and mechanically mowed at the time of flowering. Plant remnants were temporarily left on the soil before being buried; subclovers (Trifolium subterraneun, mixture of the early cultivars Nungarin, Daliak and Esperance) and native leguminous plants, or «weeds», growing in the plots from the fourth year of ecological succession (Bisermla pelecinus, Lupinas angustifolium, Omithopus compressus, T. angustifolium, T. arvense. T. hirtum, Trigonella polyceratia, Vicia articúlala, V. Benghalensis and V. lútea). Experimental triáis were performed at the «Finca de La Higueruela» (Toledo, Spain) over a 3 year-period. Plots (96 x 12 m) were prepared according to a statistical design that allowed the results of the live covers to be compared with those derived from the use of traditional management methods (non-tillage plus herbicides or tillage). So far, indications are that these herbaceous covers are capable of considerably mitigating erosión without substantially affecting olive production. However, prolonged triáis are required to confirm the viability of this management strategy in terms of improved sustainability and low costPeer reviewedFood and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations201220122001info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://hdl.handle.net/10261/46972reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
