Use of the stics crop model as a tool to inform vineyard zonages

Abstract

[English version below]

STICS est un modèle de culture développé à l’INRA (France) depuis 1996. Il simule les bilans de carbone, d’eau et d’azote dans le système culture-sol, piloté par des données climatiques journaliéres. Il calcule à la fois des variables agricoles (rendement en quantité et qualité) et environnementales (pertes en eau et en azote). Une des originalités de STICS est son adaptabilité à de nombreuses cultures (herbacées, ligneuses, annuelles, pérennes) rendue possible par le choix de paramètres génériques et d’options de formalismes. Le travail présenté traite, dans un premier temps, des spécificités de STICS pour la vigne en terme de bilan trophique, de fonctionnement énergétique et hydrique et d’estimation des teneurs en sucre en en eau du raisin. Nous montrons ensuite diverses sorties du modèle qui permettent de caractériser des terroirs du vignoble des Côtes du Rhône.

STICS is a crop model developed at INRA (France) since 1996. It simulates the carbon, water and nitrogen balances of the crop-soil system driven by daily climatic data. It calculates both agricultural variables (yield in terms of quantity and quality) and environmental variables (water and nitrogen losses). One of the key elements of STICS is its adaptability to various crops (herbaceous, ligneous, annuals, perennials) made possible by the choice of generic parameters and options for both crop physiology and crop techniques. The present work deals first with the particularity of STICS to simulate vineyard in terms of trophic balance, energetic and water functioning and assessment of sugar and water contents of grape. Second it shows the various outputs which can be calculated by the model in order to characterize typical Côtes du Rhône zones.

VOLATILE AND GLYCOSYLATED MARKERS OF SMOKE IMPACT: EVOLUTION IN BOTTLED WINE

Smoke impact in wines is caused by a wide range of volatile phenols found in wildfire smoke. These compounds are absorbed and accumulate in berries, where they may also become glycosylated. Both volatile and glycosylated forms eventually end up in wine where they can cause off-flavors. The impact on wine aroma is mainly attributed to volatile phenols, while in-mouth hydrolysis of glycosylated forms may be responsible for long-lasting “ashy” aftertastes (1).

PyExpress – A pipeline for fast and reliable UAV image processing in vineyards

Increasing drought poses a challenge to viticulture, with complex impacts on grape yield and quality. The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in Precision Viticulture offers a valuable tool to detect drought stress, capturing its spatio-temporal variability and thus, supports management strategies.

Climats: a model of terroir-based winegrowing recognized by UNESCO

In Burgundy, a climat has nothing to do with the weather but accurately designates a named vine plot, often centuries-old, which produces a singular wine. This wine is the combination of history, the natural environment (relief, type of soil, exposure to the sun), a grape variety and know-how going back thousands of years. The grapes of each climat are harvested separately and the wine is made from a single grape variety and has a unique name featured on the bottle.
