Peach fruit quality is dependent on preharvest treatments and orchard practices. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of preharvest potassium silicon fertilization on fruit postharvest quality. Two peach cultivars (“Early Bomba” and “Plagold 17”) were sprayed with three concentrations of potassium silicon (K-Si) at fruit set, stone hardening, and physiological maturity stages. The applied treatments corresponded to control (T0 = 0% K-Si) pulverized with distilled water and two K-Si treatments (T1 = 3% K-Si and T2 = 4.5% K-Si). The blooming and harvesting dates, vegetative growth and agronomical parameters were analyzed over two growing seasons (2021–2022). Peach fruits were stored at 5 °C and 95% RH during two cold storage periods (2 and 4 weeks) followed by 2 days at room temperatures. The fruit weights (FW), color, firmness, soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), pulp stone ratio (P/S) and fruit weight loss (FWL) were evaluated. The anthocyanins, flavonoids, total phenolics, carotenoids and antioxidant capacity (DPPH) were determined. Vitamin B5 and vitamin C were analyzed by HPLC. The ethylene rate and the chilling injury symptoms (CI) were analyzed after two cold storage periods (2 and 4 weeks). Results showed that the applied potassium silicon treatments (3% K-Si and 4.5% K-Si) enhanced the FW, SSC, TA, FWL, fruit composition and CI. Anthocyanins and total phenolics increased after cold storage period under K-Si treatments. The nectarine cultivar (cv) Early Bomba showed low sensibility to chilling injury symptoms as compared to the cv Plagold 17.

La protección de la agricultura periurbana mediante la zonificación de determinados suelos como no urbanizables por los instrumentos de planificación urbanística y territorial resulta insuficiente frente a las fuertes presiones de usos residenciales, industriales, infraestructurales y, en ocasiones, turísticos que provocan su fragilidad. En este texto se aborda la potencialidad del paisaje para activar este tipo de agricultura que se desenvuelve bajo influencia urbana directa y se adopta el Landscape Character Assessment como metodología sistemática de identificación y caracterización de los paisajes de la agricultura periurbana del Gran Sousse, la principal aglomeración urbana y turística del Sahel tunecino, con objeto de su evaluación, ordenación y promoción. Se adopta la noción de carácter del paisaje y se relaciona con las políticas públicas de gestión de los espacios agrarios periurbanos tunecinos y la percepción social, mediante entrevistas a una muestra de actores locales y regionales. Se analiza la diversidad paisajística concretada en Áreas Paisajísticas de Agricultura Periurbana (APAP), caracterizadas a partir de su particular fisonomía, y de los principales elementos y funcionamiento pasado y presente. El estudio concluye con la propuesta de un proyecto de paisaje como infraestructura verde, que implica un modelo de gestión de conflictos de acuerdo con las necesidades propias del paisaje, de los agricultores y de la población que lo percibe y lo utiliza como espacio abierto, fortaleciendo su función de productor de alimentos de calidad y de proximidad, como un ejercicio de participación y gobernanza territorial.

Understanding past landscape changes is crucial to promote agroecological landscape transitions. This study analyzes past land cover changes (LCCs) alongside subsequent degradation and improvements in the study area. The input land cover (LC) data were taken from ESRI’s ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World and then assessed for accuracy using ground truth data points randomly selected from high-resolution images on the Google Earth Engine. The LCC analyses were performed on QGIS 3.28.15 using the Semi-Automatic Classification Plugin (SCP) to generate LCC data. The degradation or improvement derived from the analyzed data was subsequently assessed using the UNCCD Good Practice Guidance to generate land cover degradation data. Using the Landscape Ecology Statistics (LecoS) plugin in QGIS, the input LC data were processed to provide landscape metrics. The data presented in this article show that the studied landscape is not static, even over a short-term time horizon (2017–2022). The transition from one LC class to another had an impact on the ecosystem and induced different states of degradation. For the three main LC classes (forest, crops, and rangeland) representing 98.9% of the total area in 2022, the landscape metrics, especially the number of patches, reflected a 105% increase in landscape fragmentation between 2017 and 2022.

LLas aguas residuales tratadas eran recursos y su uso en los países áridos y semiáridos es una pregunta de nivel internacional. El artículo aborda el proceso de gestión integrada “aguas residuales tratadas/agricultura periurbana” en Túnez, y sus conflictos ambientales y sociales. La investigación se basa en la combinación del método de evaluación del paisaje, Landscape Character Assessment (LCA), y las entrevistas realizadas con los agricultores de la zona de riego público (ZRP) de Zaouia, lo que permite la caracterización de los paisajes del ámbito de estudio y explicar la percepción de los agricultores, especialmente, sobre el uso de las aguas residuales tratadas y su interacción con otros actores del territorio. Los resultados será una herramienta de toma de la decisión y desarrollar el compromiso entre las aguas residuales tratadas y la agricultura periurbana.

An urban landscape can be considered as a background environment that influences humans’ movements at various scales in the city. This research is oriented to the study of the interactions between urban forest patches and their degree of influence and attractions on humans’ behaviors and interactions. The objective is to evaluate the relations between individuals’ movements and the city space nearby natural landscapes, and also to question spatial practices in the city. Forest patches are modelled according to a structural approach at the city level, while Space syntax principles have been applied and compared to in situ movements as experimentally observed. A statistical analysis complements the configurational analysis by highlighting correlations between structural properties and human movements. The whole approach is applied to the Bir El Bey Forest of the Tunisian city of Hammam Chatt in order to explore the interaction between the built and natural landscapes at different levels of scale. The findings exhibit the respective effects of the urban network and natural landscape on the urban space, and how such spaces are appropriated by Hammam Chatt inhabitants and users. Finally, the results propose a generic framework analysis for the study of the relations between humans and urban structure and landscape preferences and that offers novel perspectives for urban planning.

La question de l’agriculture urbaine et périurbaine (AUP) est aujourd’hui d’actualité en Tunisie parce qu’elle devient une préoccupation des politiques territoriales et des stratégies agri-urbaines en termes de gestion et de durabilité des milieux. Mais cette thématique multidisciplinaire présente encore des imprécisions et des tautologies dans les terminologies et dans l’acceptabilité de ce champ de production hybride agricole et urbain. C’est dans ce contexte que ce travail est entrepris pour cerner la vision de l’AUP par les acteurs publics, parapublics et privés. Les enquêtes menées directement (en face à face) auprès d’une population représentative de 85 acteurs révèlent un dualisme caractérisé à la fois par une « distanciation » et une « non distanciation » dans les différentes qualifications de l’AUP. La tendance montre plutôt une crise dans sa professionnalisation et dans sa visibilité, toutes deux réduites. Cependant, l’ensemble des populations enquêtées converge vers l’affirmation de l’intérêt de l’AUP, dans une vision limitée au productivisme de l’agriculture. Pour 58 % des acteurs publics, l’AUP est utile, mais plutôt dans une vision de production agricole résiduelle ; 30 % des acteurs publics la considèrent plutôt comme étant une activité en transition, de latence, de stock, ou de réserve foncière. Les acteurs parapublics présentent un ancrage dans les dimensions socio-spatiales, et ce, dans une logique agri-paysagère environnementaliste. Cette qualification est identifiée chez les trois quarts des acteurs parapublics et chez 50 % des acteurs publics. Une toute autre qualification est exprimée par les acteurs privés, plutôt tenants d’un urbanisme vert, car plus des deux tiers privilégient les services agroécologiques de médiation, les métiers verts et de l’obtention de produits agricoles de qualité et de proximité.
