“…Cultivation of biomass crops on marginal soils requires careful design, establishment and maintenance of suitable cropping systems ( Spiertz, 2013 ; Solinas et al, 2015 ). Marginal soils lack the nutrient resources necessary to provide a certain minimal productivity for plant biomass production and thus require a more costly input than what can be recovered by the output ( European Environmental Agency, 2015 ).…”

“…, 2020). Solinas et al. (2015), among other crops, have estimated the environmental impacts of the globe artichoke considering the Spinoso sardo variety, studying two different scenarios which highlight the difference among the solely production of food (i.e.…”

“…In the light of the environmental protection, recent studies have been addressed to the environmental impact assessment analysis of the globe artichoke production, developing either case studies, laboratory experiments or conceptual and methodological framework (De Luca et al, 2015). Lo Giudice et al (2014) have investigated the Sicilian globe artichoke crop in detail, whereas other authors have considered more crops at the same time (Beltran et al, 2022;Martin-Gorriz et al, 2020;Solinas et al, 2015).…”

“…Marginal and degraded land can be defined as land less suitable or totally unsuitable for food production where a low level of economic profit is expected [10]. Marginal lands could be correctly identified and valued with a land suitability analysis based on multi-criteria approaches which enable to integrate environmental constraints (e.g., soil depth, erosion, slope) [11] and social and economic needs of the communities engaged [12,13].…”
