“…Ecopoints are intended as one thousandth of the annual overall environmental burden of an average European inhabitant. Salata et al (2022) have investigated the influence of irrigation frequency and drying temperature on the yield of dry leaf biomass, exploring at the same time its pharmacological value in terms of polyphenol content. The authors have supposed three different irrigation frequencies and it has emerged that the drought stress, caused by the lack of additional water, could increase the leaves chlorogenic, the ferulic acids content and the number of flavonoids.…”

PurposeThe research provides a systematic literature review on the environmental sustainability of the globe artichoke [Cynara cardunculus L. var. scolymus (L.) Fiori], in the cultivated cardoon [Cynara cardunculus L. var. altilis DC.] and in the wild cardoon [Cynara cardunculus L. var. sylvestris (Lamk)] supply chains, to fill in the literature data gaps and to identify new research directions.Design/methodology/approachIn the light of the PRISMA standard guidelines, the research provides a systematic literature review according to six research strings on Scopus and Web of Science. 45 scientific articles have been selected out of 407 contributions. Data have been synthesized according to a co-word analysis through the VOSviewer software, to provide insights into the structure of the research network, to offer a multidimensional scaling and clustering into research groups and to discuss the results.FindingsThe research identifies five main research trends: (1) biomass-to-bioenergy or biomass-to-biocomposite materials; (2) waste-to-bioenergy or waste-to-bioproducts; (3) crop management to increase yield productivity; (4) environmental impacts assessment; (5) irrigation water management. Besides, the research highlights momentous challenges and adopted strategies to tackle climate change and to reduce natural resources consumption, as well as the nexus between circular economy and environmental impact assessment.Originality/valueThe novelty of this study relies on the fact that it analyses the environmental sustainability of the Cynara cardunculus L. spp. Supply chain in a systematic way, giving the opportunity to identify future research directions regarding the environmental impacts associated with agricultural production and industrial transformation.

“…In this framework, GA 3 application has been shown to promote considerable earliness in globe artichoke heading, and thus harvest timing is crucial [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Many previous studies have revealed a certain variability among globe artichoke genotypes [ 12 , 31 , 32 ]. Accordingly, in our experiments, the GA 3 treatment guaranteed the earlier production of heads, as especially observed for ‘Apollo’ and ‘Tema 2000’.…”

“…The main classes of polyphenol compounds in globe artichoke plants are mono- and di-caffeoylquinic acids (including chlorogenic acid and cynarin), flavones such as apigenin and luteolin derivatives, and cynaropicrin, the main compound of sesquiterpene lactones [ 11 ]. In particular, the recovery of these bioactive compounds from large quantities of globe artichoke agro-industrial discards (nearly 80% of the total biomass and mostly represented by leaves and floral stems) could represent a valuable way to enhance sustainability and productivity, favoring a circular economy [ 12 ]. Due to globe artichoke’s reputation as a functional food and a delicacy ingredient in many recipes, it is imperative to find methods allowing the improvement of crop yield and quality to meet consumers’ demand.…”

Increasing interest has been shown in globe artichoke for pharmaceutical and food applications as a significant source of polyphenol compounds. With the aim to improve the polyphenol profile of globe artichoke, an open-field experiment is set up to study the effect of gibberellic acid (GA3) application on the cynaropicrin, caffeoylquinic acid and flavone levels of three genotypes (‘Apollo’, ‘Tema 2000’ and ‘Violet de Provence’), along with crop earliness, yield and bio-morphological plant response. The results indicate that GA3 treatment is more effective in terms of total polyphenol and caffeoylquinic acid accumulation in ‘Apollo’, regardless of the plant parts analyzed. In particular, the leaves of ‘Apollo’ were the richest source of luteolin derivatives of 5-O- and 1,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acids. On average across the genotypes, GA3 treatment favored the accumulation of apigenin derivatives in the floral stem, and caffeoylquinic acid and cynaropicrin in the leaves. From the perspective of yield, GA3 treatment allowed us to anticipate the first harvest in each genotype, while either maintaining (‘Apollo’, ‘Violet de Provence’) or enhancing (‘Tema 2000’) the fresh weight yield. In conclusion, this study could be interesting for promoting GA3 usage to ameliorate the globe artichoke nutraceutical profile and to anticipate the first harvest for fresh marketing without significant yield losses.

“…The MSPF has a significant effect of saving water and increasing yield, and it has a good prospect in the field of facility agriculture tomato planting [5,9,10]. The results show that irrigation frequency and irrigation amount can change soil water distribution and crop yield and quality [2,11]. In terms of irrigation frequency, farmers often initiate irrigation after delayed drought stress on the crop physiological index.…”

The purpose of this study was to analyse the suitability of the frequency and amount of microsprinkler irrigation under plastic film technology (MSPF) in a greenhouse. This study was aimed at determining the effects of different irrigation frequency and irrigation amount of the MSPF on the quality, yield (Y), and water use efficiency (WUE) of tomato, and the optimal irrigation period and irrigation amount of tomato with MSPF were determined by spatial analysis method. Irrigation frequency was set 3 levels, 3 d (F1), 5 d (F3), and 7 d (F3), respectively. Irrigation amount was set 3 levels, 0.7 E pan (I1), 1.0 E pan (I2), and 1.2 E pan (I3) ( E pan is the diameter of 20 cm standard pan evaporation, mm), respectively. The results show that increase in the single fruit weight (SFW), transverse diameter (TD), vertical diameter (VD), total soluble solids (TSS), total soluble sugar (TSU), soluble solid content (SSC), sugar-acid ratio (SAR), soluble protein (SP), vitamin C (VC), lycopene (L), Y, and WUE of spring and autumn tomatoes was observed initially with decreasing irrigation frequency; however, decrease in all these variables was observed thereafter. Similarly, SFW, TD, VD, and SAR of spring and autumn tomatoes first added and then reduced with increasing irrigation amount, whereas TSS, SP, TSU, VC, L, and WUE exhibited an overall decreasing trend. On the basis of spatial analysis, the comprehensive score, Y, and WUE of F2I2 tomato were predicted to simultaneously reach more than 95% of the maximum, which is consistent with the earlier studies on comprehensive evaluation of yield and WUE.
