The evolution of italian vine nursery production over the past 30 years

Abstract

Italy has a long history of viticulture and has become one of the world’s leading producers of vine propagation material. The Italian vine nursery industry is today highly qualified and has become highly competitive on a global scale. The quality of the material is guaranteed by compliance with european union regulations, which have been in force since the second half of the 20th century and have subsequently been supplemented and updated.  This study presents and analyses data on propagation materials produced by the italian nursery sector over a period of more than 30 years (1990-2023). The data demonstrate a significant increase in the volume of material produced and reveal some trends in the most widely propagated varieties. Total plant production increased by more than threefold from 1990 to 2023, from approximately 40 million plants to over 141 million. Furthermore, it is possible to identify specific production trends for certain varieties, such as glera (formerly prosecco), which exceeded 18 million plants produced in 2017.

L’évolution de la production de pépinières viticoles italienne au cours des 30 dernières années

L’Italie a une longue histoire de viticulture et est devenue l’un des principaux producteurs mondiaux de matériel de multiplication de la vigne. L’industrie italienne des pépinières viticoles est aujourd’hui hautement qualifiée et est devenue très compétitive à l’échelle mondiale. La qualité des matériels est garantie par le respect de la réglementation de l’union européenne, en vigueur depuis la seconde moitié du 20e siècle et qui a été complétée et mise à jour par la suite. Cette étude présente et analyse les données relatives aux matériels de multiplication produits par le secteur italien des pépinières sur une période de plus de 30 ans (1990-2023). Les données montrent une augmentation significative du volume de matériel produit et révèlent certaines tendances concernant les variétés les plus répandues. La production totale de plantes a plus que triplé entre 1990 et 2023, passant d’environ 40 millions de plantes à plus de 141 millions. En outre, il est possible d’identifier des tendances de production spécifiques pour certaines variétés, telles que la glera (anciennement prosecco), qui a dépassé les 18 millions de plantes produites en 2017.

L’evoluzione della produzione vivaistica viticola italiana negli ultimi 30 anni

L’Italia ha una lunga tradizione vitivinicola ed è diventata uno dei principali produttori mondiali di materiale di propagazione della vite. La filiera vivaistica viticola italiana è oggi altamente qualificata ed è diventata altamente competitiva su scala globale. La qualità del materiale è garantita dal rispetto delle normative dell’unione europea, in vigore dalla seconda metà del xx secolo che sono state successivamente integrate e aggiornate.  Questo studio riporta ed esamina i dati relativi ai materiali di propagazione prodotti dal settore vivaistico italiano in oltre 30 anni (1990-2023). I dati dimostrano un notevole aumento del volume di materiale prodotto e alcune tendenze nelle varietà maggiormente propagate. La produzione totale di piante è più che triplicata dal 1990 al 2023, passando da circa 40 milioni di piante a oltre 141 milioni. Sono osservabili andamenti produttivi specifiche per alcuni vitigni, come glera, che nel 2017 ha superato i 18 milioni di piante prodotte.

Validation of a method for the determination of volatile compounds in in spirituous beverages using contained ethanol as a reference substance

The results of experimental studies of the method based on the usage of ethyl alcohol as an internal standard for the direct determination of volatile compounds in wines and others alcohol contained products are presented. The method was validated in terms of precision, accuracy, limits of detection and quantification (lod and loq), linearity, and robustness.

Low and zero alcohol “wines”: impact of different dealcoholization processes on phenol profile and health benefits

Consumers’ demand for non-alcoholic wine has notably increased in the last years: this trend is a consequence of a growing interest in more healthy habits, and as a response to higher alcohol levels in wine due to climate change. In addition, drinking limitations due to physiological/pathological conditions (e.g., pregnancy, diabetes, hepatic disorders), driving regulations, ethical/religious considerations, and high import taxes on alcoholic beverages have positively influenced this marked (us$ 1.6 billion in 2021). International organisation of vine and wine (OIV) established that alcohol content defining wines must not be less than 8.5% vol, (OIV, 2017).
