1. Interactions between plants can be beneficial, detrimental or neutral. In agricultural systems, competition between crop and spontaneous vegetation is a major concern. We evaluated the relative support for three non-exclusive ecological hypotheses about interactions between crop and spontaneous plants based on competition, complementarity or facilitation. 2. The study was conducted in...

Gardens are hot spots for urban biodiversity and provide habitats for many plant and animal species, both above- and below-ground. Furthermore, gardens provide a wide range of ecosystem services, including carbon (C) storage and nutrient cycling. Although the soil is the foundation of sustainable gardens providing those ecosystem services, very little is known about the consequences of garden...

How does the knowledge of Swiss consumers on palm oil affects consumption patterns?

Abbondioli, Estelle ; Depetris Chauvin, Nicolas (Dir.)

Mémoire de bachelor : Haute école de gestion de Genève, 2018 ; TDIBM 29.

Palm oil is the most produced vegetable oil and accounts for 30% of the global vegetable oil production. This significant production generates negative externalities such as contributing to climate change, deforestation of the rainforests and biodiversity loss. However, this vegetable oil holds many advantages as well, such as having the highest agricultural yield, creating jobs and wealth for...
