This master's thesis focuses on representative management strategies of organic farming (OA) to manage and use agroecosystems in line with the most recent European directives. Thus, it is intended to promote sustainable agronomic practices designed to preserve organic matter and soil nutrients, maintain production and increase the resilience of ecosystems in the face of global change. Specifically, this study focuses on evaluating the effects of compost addition, plant covers (sown and spontaneous) and the presence of livestock on soil quality and fertility. For this, an experiment was designed in pots using soil from a model farm (Cortijo El Puerto, Seville) dedicated to the cultivation of organic olive groves. For this, a complete characterization of this compost was carried out and after its application, 3 cover crops were established where artificial urine was also applied to simulate cattle excrement. Two soil samples were undertaken, one after the addition of compost and the other once the cover crops were developed and urine was added. Soil physicochemical and biochemical parameters were analyzed. The compost analysis showed that this was a very mature material, with high nutrient content and low heavy metal content. Its high maturity explains its low organic matter content compared to what can be expected for this type of material. In the first soil sampling, it was found that the compost increased soil water retention capacity and its carbon and nutrient content. This fact explained that the compost yielded higher biomass, both planted and spontaneous. The biochemical properties of the soil were not affected by the addition of the compost. In the second sampling, it was observed that the vegetation cover was the most influential factor in the quality of the soil. On the other hand, cattle stools had little or no influence on enzyme activities, except for dehydrogenase, which was positively affected by this factor. The application of the compost produced a certain inhibitory effect on some enzymatic activities. Although long-term field studies are needed, this work shows that the implementation of sustainable agricultural practices, taking into account previous soil analyzes and calculating the appropriate doses, can be crucial in improving the quality and resilience of agrosystems
