This book explores the potential of the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua L.) as a strategic crop for sustainable development and agroforestry diversification in Andalusia. Given the challenges of climate change, this species stands out for its drought resistance and low water requirements, making it a highly valuable economic and social alternative for rural areas.
The work provides a comprehensive view that combines scientific rigor with practical application, covering everything from advances in genetic improvement and cultivation techniques to the valorization of derivatives such as carob and locust bean gum. It is an essential tool for farmers, technicians, and professionals in the sector looking to implement innovative and profitable solutions in agroforestry management.
