The possession and appraisal of agricultural fields have significant economic and social impacts. The objective of this study is to examine the perception of farmers in the Huambo Province, Angola, regarding the characteristics that enhance and diminish the value of agricultural lands in the process of buying and selling. The utilized quantitative methodology is based on a questionnaire administered to farmers in the Huambo Province. The sample size consists of 644 respondents. The results allow us to conclude that the income generated from farming activities and the presence of infrastructure greatly facilitate the appraisal of agricultural fields. Conversely, the absence of legal ownership documentation and conflicts related to land ownership reduce the value of the fields. The exploratory factor analysis identified seven determinant factors, responsible for explaining 61.334% of the total variance, in the appraisal of agricultural fields: inherent location characteristics of the property, market dynamics related to agricultural fields, the availability of water on the property, proximity to tourist destinations, physical conditions of the fields, the positive externalities generated, and the advantages offered by the fields. We believe that this study will assist appraisers, farmers, and public administration in understanding the factors that positively and negatively impact the appraisal of agricultural fields.

“…The six generations of the Italian so-called "thermalism" [23,24] have referred to various models of thermal tourism systems, including the leisure tourism of the late 19th century, the health tourism of the 20th century, and the slow and wellbeing tourism of the 21st century. Despite these differences [25], all these systems agree that the thermal-mineral waters, due to their exceptional chemical-physical and organoleptic qualities, are significant economic resources that should be protected and wisely managed.…”

Water Resources and Health Tourism in Val di Sole: Key Elements for Innovating with Nature in the Italian Inner Territories

The contexts addressed by the Italian National Strategy for Inner Areas (SNAI) often lack successful regional policies and systemic territorial approaches to achieve effective transformations towards resilient territories. These issues are addressed by the ongoing project “B4R Branding4Resilience.” This contribution aims to present and discuss its first results in the focus area of Val di Sole, Trentino-Alto Adige Region (Italy). The main goal of the University of Trento unit is to pursue leadership in innovating with nature in small thermal villages. The aim is to create a territorial strategy based on the value of the water resources and thermal systems by promoting the enhancement of their natural capital. An interdisciplinary and multi-scalar methodology has been adopted to combine qualitative and quantitative approaches; a data collection process was used to explore the natural identity of Val di Sole to comprehend the ecological and spatial elements; a co-design activity was conducted with the local community’s engagement to propose a resilient territorial strategic vision. As a result, the “Val di Sole Blueprint” represents a strategic tool to implement thermal landscapes as ecological design resources for the territory and to support sustainable territorial development for a better quality of life.

“…Para a interpolação dos dados de EEP foi utilizado o IDW (Inverse Distance Weighting), usado com êxito em outros estudos(COSTA et al, 2021;TAVARES;SANTOS, 2022), e a espacialização das informações ocorreu no SIG QGIS 3.4. As feições erosivas lineares (FEL) foram identificadas manualmente, utilizando imagens Google Earth disponíveis no plugin Quick Map Services do QGIS 3.4(PETSCH et al, 2022b).…”

Os eventos extremos de precipitação (EEP) se apresentam como deflagradores de diversos desastres naturais, podendo desencadear, por exemplo, processos erosivos com a desagregação e transporte de material sedimentar. Os estudos para a bacia hidrográfica do rio Santa Maria (BHRSM), localizada no sudoeste gaúcho, indicam que as feições erosivas lineares (FEL) ocorrem principalmente em rochas friáveis e porções com alta erosividade da precipitação. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi identificar e caracterizar os EEP da BHRSM e avaliar sua relação com os processos erosivos. Os EEP foram obtidos a partir da aplicação do percentil 99 com dados de sete estações meteorológicas (EM), entre 1986-2020. A espacialização e cruzamento dos dados foram realizados no QGIS. A BHRSM teve um total de 695 EEP. Verificou-se que, anualmente, os anos com mais EEP são aqueles com ONI (Oceanic Niño Index) positivo. Sazonalmente, primavera e outono são as estações com mais EEP, o que está ligado aos Complexos Convectivos de Mesoescala. Os meses com mais eventos extremos coincidem com os de plantio e colheita de soja. Devido ao manejo da terra, o solo pode ficar exposto e, consequentemente, desencadear processos erosivos. Espacialmente, observou-se que a predominância de FEL ocorre na área de influência da EM Ponte Toropi II, que concentra 50% dos eventos extremos da BHRSM. Este estudo aponta que pode ocorrer o desenvolvimento das FEL em função dos EEP, além do contexto de substrato arenoso pouco consolidado, que já configura um cenário de fragilidade ambiental para a BHRSM.
