Enhancing grape traceability from grower to consumer through GS1 Standards: A case study of the Australian table grape industry

Abstract

The traceability of agricultural products, including grapes, is essential for ensuring food safety, quality control, and supply chain transparency. This article investigates the use of GS1 standards to enhance grape traceability from grower to consumer. Through a case study approach, we examine how Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs), Global Location Numbers (GLNs), and Serial Shipping Container Codes (SSCCs) were integrated into grape production and distribution processes to harmonize domestic and export supply chains and prepare for global regulatory requirements.

Potenziare la tracciabilità dell’uva dal produttore al consumatore attraverso gli standard GS1

La tracciabilità dei prodotti agricoli, compresi gli acini d’uva, è essenziale per garantire la sicurezza alimentare, il controllo della qualità e la trasparenza della catena di approvvigionamento. Questo articolo indaga sull’implementazione degli standard GS1 per migliorare la tracciabilità dell’uva dal produttore al consumatore. Utilizzando un approccio basato su studi di caso, esaminiamo l’integrazione degli identificatori GS1, come i numeri globali di articolo commerciale (GTIN), i numeri globali di localizzazione (GLN) e i codici di contenitore di spedizione sequenziale (sscc), nei processi di produzione e distribuzione dell’uva. Gli standard GS1 sono stati integrati nei dati sui frutti e sulla catena di approvvigionamento per armonizzare le catene di approvvigionamento nazionali ed estere, e per preparare l’industria dell’uva da tavola alle future esigenze regolamentari globali sulla tracciabilità.

Evaluation of sap flow and trunk diameter measurements in grapevines using time series decomposition

Grapevines are very sensitive to weather conditions. Excessively hot and dry periods trigger the activation of survival mechanisms, such as reduction of crop transpiration and the redistribution of water. Monitoring these mechanisms is, therefore, essential to better understand the grapevine water dynamics and maximize water-use efficiency.

Health benefits of winemaking by-products: in vitro study of the phenolic profile and potential healthy properties

The wine sector plays a significant role in the international agri-food industry, with the winemaking process leading to the generation of considerable amounts of by-products. Among these by-products, grape pomace, is one of the most abundant resources, mainly finding application in the production of distillates, fertilizers, and animal feed.

Panorama des actions d’amélioration variétale face aux challenges d’aujourd’hui et de demain, le rôle de l’IFV

In April 2024, the French official catalog includes 449 grape varieties and rootstocks. In 10 years it has been enriched with 70 varieties. It is an indisputable marker of the interest of professionals in genetic resources of all origins and the expectations they have to prepare the viticulture of the future. The scientific community has now put all irons in the fire and is not neglecting any avenue of adaptation. The regular decline in the use of phytosanitary products and the already marked effects of climate change are the targets of varietal improvement.

New genomic techniques, plant variety rights and wine law

The paper discusses potential implications of New Genomic Technologies (NGTs) on European Plant Variety and Wine Law.

Is complex nutrition more advantageous than mineral nitrogen for the fermentative capacities of S. cerevisiae?

During alcoholic fermentation, nitrogen is an essential nutrient for yeast as it plays a key role in sugar transport and biosynthesis of wine aromatic compounds (thiols, esters, higher alcohols). The main issue of a lack in yeast assimilable nitrogen (yan) in winemaking is sluggish or stuck fermentations promoting the growth of alteration species which may lead to economic losses. However, correcting this nitrogen deficiency is sometimes not enough to restore proper fermentation performance. This suggests the existence of other nutritional shortages.
