MicroLEIS DSS predicts the optimum land us … MicroLEIS DSS predicts the optimum land use and the best soil management practices, personalized for each soil type, in order to get the optimum biomass productivity, minimum environmental vulnerability and maximum CO2 sequestration while considering climate change scenarios all together with other important global change elements, such as land use change, desertification, agricultural extensification/intensification, etc.
MicroLEIS DSS consists of three interactive data bases for soil, climate and management and 12 evaluation models that evaluate soil capability and vulnerability under current scenario and future scenario of global change. MicroLEIS DSS has over 5000 users worldwide.
The Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) is the legal owner of the MicroLEIS DSS Technology registered under application number 200899900514357 and submitted on the 2nd of June, 2008 to the Delegate Office of the Intellectual Property Registry in Seville, Spain. The tool was developed by the Soil Evaluation Research Group under the leadership of Research Professor, Diego de la Rosa Acosta, of the Soil-Plant-Water Protection Department belonging to the CSIC’s Institute of Natural Resources and Agro-Biology in Seville.
On the 2nd of February, 2009, CSIC and Evenor-Tech signed a License Contract by which CSIC grants Evenor-Tech the exclusive rights to exploit and develop the MicroLEIS System.
Case study:
To reverse the negative environmental impacts of agriculture, a land evaluation decision support system (DSS) known as MicroLEIS-DSS was used to design the most sustainable land use and management practices for selected Mediterranean benchmark sites in Sevilla Province, Southern Spain.
The predicted results of applying the 12 agro-ecological land evaluation model constituents of MicroLEIS DSS are presented and discussed at De la Rosa, et al, 2009. The main conclusion of this paper is that using soil type information in decision-making is at the heart for sustainable use and management of agricultural land. This agro-ecological approach can be especially useful when formulating soil-specific agricultural practices to reverse environmental degradation, based on the spatial variability of soils and related resources.ariability of soils and related resources. +
