Nitrogen Fertilization Strategies for Organic Wheat Production: Crop Yield and Nitrate Leaching

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 770-781, March–April 2016., 2016
Nitrogen fertility management represents a crucial aspect for common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production, particularly when we deal with organic agriculture. This study was conducted to determine the effect of five N fertilization strategies on yield, grain protein content, and N leaching risk.

Development of Hybrid Models for a Vapor‐Phase Fungi Bioreactor

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
This study is aimed at the development of a model for an experimental vapour‐phase fungi bioreactor, which could be derived in a simple way using the available measurements of a pilot‐plant reactor, without the development of ad hoc experiments for the evaluation of fungi kinetics and the estimation of parameters related to biofilm characteristics. The

How much energy can giant reed and Miscanthus produce in marginal lands across Italy? A modelling solution under current and future scenarios

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2025.
There is a research and policy need to quantify the marginal land areas across Italy, suited to be cultivated with perennial energy grasses, and to produce different energy vectors. This study provides a model‐based assessment of how much energy, from biomethane and bioethanol, can be obtained by giant reed and Miscanthus across Italy in 2055 and 2085.
