It is worth mentioning the work of Pérez Mesa et al (2018) that offers a network approach to differentiate the import countries from the export countries in the European context.…”

The objectives of this work are to determine the profiles of the countries that make up the European tomato consuming market and to observe if the economic-financial crisis (2007/2008) has influenced them. Both Lafay’s economic indicators were applied and country profiles and subprofiles were identified through a multilevel two-stage cluster analysis. The empirical analysis covers the period from 2005 to 2016, separated into two periods, pre-crisis (2005–2010) and post-crisis (2011–2016). Most countries obtained import and export profiles that coincide in both indices, Except in Italy. Only one post-crisis profile change was detected, this being for Greece, from an importer to an exporter. As a result of the initial two-stage clustering analysis (both in the pre-crisis and post-crisis period), three clusters were obtained. At the first level of clustering, Italy is identified with a producer profile and Spain and the Netherlands with an exporter profile. At the second level of clustering of the initial larger group, two clusters were identified, Germany and the United Kingdom with an importing sub-profile, and France and Belgium with an exporting sub-profile. In the transition from the pre-crisis to the post-crisis period, Portugal changed from a producer sub-profile to an exporter sub-profile.

“…Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) belongs to the family Solanaceae is one of the most popular and worldwide consumed vegetable crops (Valenciano and Battistuzzi, 2012;Asfaw and Eshetu, 2015). It is also the most processed vegetable crop and ranks rst in commercial and nutritional contribution to the human diet (Jayathunge et al, 2012;Yusufe et al, 2017).…”

Background Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) belongs to the family Solanaceae is one of the most popular and most processed vegetable crops worldwide with a great nutritional contribution to the human diet. Though the demand for tomato products is increasing, its production is constricted by shortage of quality seeds due mainly to lack of appropriate seed extraction method. Inadequate seed extraction method also causes extensive disease epidemics. Conversely, empirical evidences are scanty on instant and latent effects of seed extraction methods. This study was therefore initiated to evaluate the effects of extraction methods on the physiological quality of seeds and seedlings of tomato. Result Results revealed that the highest germination percent (99.33 and 89.76% under laboratory and field conditions respectively) was obtained at 2% HCl for 60 minutes. Whereas, the maximum weight of 1000 seeds (4.277 g) was found at 1% of HCl for 30 minutes. Mycoflora load was maximum (36%) at fermentation for 72 hours. Yet, no mycoflora was detected from higher concentrations of HCl acid greater than 2% and time durations longer than 60 minutes. Conclusion the major seed quality parameters such as seed germination percent, seedling length, seedling fresh weight, seedling dry weight, and vigour indices were significantly higher at extraction method of 2% HCl for 60 minutes. Thus, it can be concluded that the maximum physiological seed quality and best performance of seedlings of tomato obtained from 2% HCl for 60 minutes seed extraction method of tomato.

“…This causes a greater tendency to consume healthy food and take more notice of the appearance of the products. With regard to fruit and vegetable, this has an impact on the varieties (Higashide, 2013), pre and post-harvest technology (Domínguez Pérez et al, 2013), packaging, logistics and marketing (De Pablo & Giacinti, 2012).…”

The business model applied to the fresh tomato trade from Almería is well known in Spain and abroad. The changes in demand are forcing export companies to change their trade strategies to become or remain competitive. The purpose of this paper is to know the business structure and its export dynamics in addition to the changes in trade strategies made by companies in Almería during the 2009-2013 period. The methodology is based on the Herfindahl-Hirshmanindex and the foreign trade competitiveness index, whereas the congruence analysis is based on Pearson's correlation coefficients and the RV coefficient. We have also applied the dual multiple factor analysis to verify changes made to the trade policy in leading businesses between two periods or scenarios. The research shows that export-driven companies behave as a moderately concentrated structure and there is an increase in the number of exporters. The competitiveness map for Almería reveals the sector's trend with regard to the most important markets. We have verified the changes made to their trade strategy to adjust to changes in foreign trade between the 2008/09 and 2012/13 campaigns. Finally, it can be pointed out that, in the analyzed period, changes in the business model for fresh tomato trade of Almería have not been significant, being its structure of moderate concentration. In addition, the great majority of variations in strategies of companies to adapt to the competitive environment have been made by leading companies.Additional key words: Almería; business structure; price; competitiveness; trade management; trade strategies.Correspondence should be addressed to Jaime De Pablo-Valenciano: jdepablo@ual.esAbbreviations used: DMFA (dual multiple factor analysis); EU (European Union); FOB (free on board); FTCI (foreign trade competitiveness index); HHI (Herfindahl-Hirshman index).
