 «O inventário das árvores do Centro Histórico de Évora decorreu durante Maio de 2021 e consistiu no levantamento da sua localização exacta e na sua identificação taxonómica. Para cada árvore apresenta-se uma ficha da espécie com o nome científico, nome vulgar, família, origem e estatuto em Portugal, uma breve descrição dos caracteres diagnóstico (como folhas, flores ou frutos), o período do ano em que está em floração, o local onde pode ser observada e, nalguns casos, uma nota sobre factos curiosos. Foram identificadas 44 espécies, na sua maioria plantas exóticas introduzidas com propósito ornamental. Este é, evidentemente, um trabalho parcial, uma vez que não contempla todas as árvores presentes no Centro Histórico de Évora. De fora ficam as muitas árvores que existem em pátios e jardins particulares, cujo acesso não é generalizado, e as árvores do Jardim Municipal, cujo acervo se encontra já documentado. É um trabalho destinado aos eborenses que desejem conhecer as árvores das ruas do Centro Histórico de Évora, mas também aos muitos turistas que nos visitam, razão pela qual é bilingue. Foi feito um esforço assinalável para não usar vocabulário técnico, que não é acessível à maioria das pessoas, e por isso dispensámo-nos de incluir o glossário habitual neste tipo de obra.» Anabela Belo

Syntropic Agriculture According to Ernst Götsch

by Daniela Ghiringhello Sakamoto e José Fernando dos Santos Rebello

17,00€ + 10% CARD

free shipping

 His knowledge of how nature works is so profound that, even today, whenever we meet him, we have the feeling that we are still in the first class. This book, based entirely on the teachings of Ernst Götsch, was written by people infatuated with nature, infatuated with planet Earth, people who believe that it is worthwhile doing your best to take care of it. There is an urgent need to disseminate a production system that, at the same time as producing tons of healthy and tasty food, recovers degraded areas, returns water to lost springs, and brings back our forests, which pushed us into this endeavor. The book, however, is far from being a definitive guide to syntropic agriculture, since knowledge about it is as dynamic as the agroecosystems created by Ernst Götsch. We understand that the paper should not freeze the concepts, since, each day, its creator refines the methods and interpretation of how nature works.
