Abstract(s)
Este estudo foi desenvolvido na Herdade dos Penedos, pertencente a sociedade
de Produção Ago-pecuária do Chaparrão, localizada na nacional 373 na Freguesia de
Caia e São Pedro no concelho de Elvas. Devido aos desafios significativos enfrentados
pela agricultura portuguesa, especialmente a pecuária extensiva em regime de sequeiro,
com secas extremas consecutivas, escassez de água e o aumento da temperatura devido
as alterações climáticas, esta pesquiza teve como objectivo analisar a situação actual e
propor melhorias baseadas em novos métodos e técnicas que minimizem estes efeitos.
Segundo a União Europeia a agricultura e a silvicultura estão fortemente expostas ao
impacto do aumento das temperaturas globais, com desafios apresentados pelas
alterações dos padrões de chuva e fenómenos meteorológicos extremos como ondas
de calor, secas, tempestades e inundações. A pecuária extensiva sem recurso a regadio
é uma das actividades mais afectada por esses fenómenos, uma vez que secas
consecutivas impedem os produtores de ter alimento forrageiro durante os meses de
verão e a falta de precipitação afasta consideravelmente a captação de água.
This study was conducted at Herdade dos Penedos, owned by the Sociedade de Produção Agropecuária do Chaparrao, situated on the national 373 in the Parish of Caia and São Pedro in the municipality of Elvas. Given the profound challenges faced by Portuguese agriculture, especially extensive livestock farming under rainfed conditions such as consecutive extreme droughts, water scarcity, and rising temperatures caused by climate change, this research aimed to analyze the current situation and propose improvements based on new methods and techniques to mitigate these effects. According to the European Union, agriculture and forestry are significantly exposed to the impact of rising global temperatures, with challenges posed by changing rainfall patterns and extreme weather events such as heatwaves, droughts, storms, and floods. Rainfed extensive livestock farming is one of the activities most affected by these phenomena since consecutive droughts prevent producers from having forage food during the summer months and the lack of rainfall significantly affects water capture.
