CeraTrap® (CT) is an attractant formulation of natural origin, based on a liquid protein obtained by an exclusive method of enzymatic hydrolysis, with strong attraction capacity for fruit flies and free of pesticides. The system functions thanks to a regular emission of volatile organic compounds. Due to this, the strongly attracted flies fall into the trap and as they are unable to escape, drown into the liquid and die.Electroantennogram (EAG) analysis were performed in order to measure an...

CROP-SCAN ® is a remote detection system for crop stress diagnosis and management. It is based on images obtained by thermal and multispectral cameras by flying over farms in determinate conditions. The technology used allows the integration on a map, with optimal spatial and temporal resolution, of the plant physiological parameters that indicate the status, development and production of the crop. The system allows to perform a precision agriculture by identifying every tree of the studied...

The aim of the following experience was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of a novel elicitor of the defensive response (Optimus®, BIOIBERICA) on the quality and the quantity of bioactive compounds of Crimson and Autum Royal table grape varieties. Results show that the application of Optimus in pre-harvest increases the content of total phenolic compounds, which correlates with the increase in antioxidant capacity. It also highlights the significant increase of the content of res...
