Abstract
The objective of this study was to produce sea fennel reducing the nutrients unload by closing the cascade cropping systems (CCS). The CCS consisted of a primary crop of rocket salad [Diplotaxis tenuifolia (L.) DC] cultivated in two different growing media: agro-industrial compost and peat. The collected drainage was used to cultivate sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum L.) in a floating system with the following treatments: T1 – 100% peat leachate; T2 – 100% compost leachate; T3 - mixture of peat leachate and fresh nutrient solution (NS) (50/50 v/v); T4 - mixture of compost leachate and fresh NS (50/50 v/v); T5- 100%fresh NS. Reusing compost drainage at 100% as a NS produced higher yield, water use efficiency (WUE) and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) than reusing peat drainage. However, further research is needed to optimize the percentage of reused drainage to maximize yield and quality of sea fennel in a floating system.
