El 6 de novembre, Gara Villalba<\/strong><\/a> va presentar la seva recerca titulada “Circularitat per Regenerar: El Paper del Carboni i els Nutrients en la Salut del S\u00f2l<\/strong>” al 24\u00e8 Congr\u00e9s de l\u2019APEVC<\/a><\/strong>, un esdeveniment clau celebrat a la Fira de Reus destinat a posar en valor el paper estrat\u00e8gic del verd en la salut p\u00fablica i la configuraci\u00f3 d\u2019un territori m\u00e9s habitable. Organitzat per l\u2019Associaci\u00f3 de Professionals dels Espais Verds de Catalunya (APEVC), el congr\u00e9s va reunir experts i professionals del sector sota el lema “La For\u00e7a del Verd”<\/strong>, abordant com la jardineria i el paisatgisme poden esdevenir motors de canvi positiu davant els reptes ambientals actuals.<\/p>\n

La pon\u00e8ncia de Gara Villalba explora com l\u2019adopci\u00f3 de l\u2019economia circular i l\u2019agricultura regenerativa pot restaurar la vitalitat dels s\u00f2ls urbans i periurbans degradats. Mitjan\u00e7ant l\u2019aplicaci\u00f3 d\u2019altes dosis de Ramial Chipped Wood (RCW) o estelles de poda \u2014un residu urb\u00e0 ric en carboni\u2014 combinada amb la t\u00e8cnica de no-llaurada, la investigaci\u00f3 demostra resultats prometedors: un augment significatiu de la captura de carboni (SOC), una millora en l\u2019efici\u00e8ncia del cicle del nitrogen amb una reducci\u00f3 dr\u00e0stica de les emissions de N\u2082O, i una major resili\u00e8ncia h\u00eddrica del s\u00f2l, validada agron\u00f2micament amb cultius com el moniato.<\/p>\n

El seu estudi constitueix un exemple important de com la circularitat del carboni ofereix un cam\u00ed viable i amb evid\u00e8ncia cient\u00edfica per a la regeneraci\u00f3 r\u00e0pida dels s\u00f2ls. La presentaci\u00f3 va destacar la necessitat de considerar l’\u00fas de la poda com una prioritat ecol\u00f2gica per maximitzar la captura de carboni a llarg termini, tot subratllant que el pas de la recerca a l’aplicaci\u00f3 massiva exigeix una coordinaci\u00f3 institucional s\u00f2lida i un nou marc regulador que reconegui i compensi l\u2019agricultor com a gestor clau de la salut del s\u00f2l i la mitigaci\u00f3 clim\u00e0tica.<\/p>\n

On November 6th, Gara Villalba<\/strong><\/a> presented her research titled “Circularity for Regeneration: The Role of Carbon and Nutrients in Soil Health”<\/strong>\u00a0at the 24th APEVC Congress<\/strong><\/a>, a key event held at Fira de Reus aimed at highlighting the strategic role of green spaces in public health and the shaping of a more habitable territory. Organized by the Association of Professionals of Green Spaces of Catalonia (APEVC), the congress gathered experts and sector professionals under the theme “The Power of Green”<\/strong> (La For\u00e7a del Verd<\/i>), addressing how gardening and landscaping can become engines for positive change in the face of current environmental challenges.<\/p>\n

Villalba\u2019s presentation explores how the adoption of the circular economy and regenerative agriculture can restore the vitality of degraded urban and peri-urban soils. Through the application of high doses of Ramial Chipped Wood (RCW) or pruning woodchips\u2014a carbon-rich urban waste\u2014combined with the no-till technique, the research demonstrates promising results: a significant increase in soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration, improved nitrogen cycle efficiency with a drastic reduction in N\u2082O emissions, and greater soil water resilience, validated agronomically with crops such as sweet potato.<\/p>\n

Her study constitutes an important example of how carbon circularity offers a viable and scientifically backed path for rapid soil regeneration. The presentation highlighted the need to consider the use of pruning residues as an ecological priority to maximize long-term carbon sequestration, emphasizing that the transition from research to mass application requires solid institutional coordination and a new regulatory framework that recognizes and compensates farmers as key managers of soil health and climate mitigation.<\/p>\n
