Gestión de la mitigación por las empresas vitivinícolas: combinar sostenibilidad y rentabilidad

Resumen

La transición hacia una economía descarbonizada requiere que las empresas adopten medidas de mitigación. El sector vitivinícola es uno de los más interesados en ello. En base a estudios previos, se han formulado dos hipótesis. La primera es que las bodegas que no destinan recursos específicos a gestionar la sostenibilidad toman decisiones de mitigación sin optimizar la rentabilidad económica y ambiental. La segunda es que la cultura organizacional de la empresa condiciona la adopción de medidas de mitigación. Siguiendo este camino, el proyecto Vid-Expert ha creado un sistema digital de apoyo a la gestión de la mitigación para las empresas vitivinícolas. Su objetivo es facilitar a los profesionales del vino la selección de medidas óptimas para su caso concreto. A partir de las Recomendaciones Metodológicas de la OIV, se ha construido un catálogo de medidas disponibles. Con los datos ingresados por el usuario, una herramienta de software avanzado calcula la huella de carbono de la organización, identifica las fuentes de emisión relevantes y sugiere las medidas de mitigación correspondientes. Las sugerencias priorizan las medidas por su relación costo-beneficio y su afinidad con las características de la empresa. El sistema permite el seguimiento de gestión a lo largo del tiempo.

Managing mitigation by wine companies: how to combine sustainability and profitability

The transition to a decarbonised economy requires companies to take mitigation measures. The wine sector is one of the most interested in this. Based on previous studies, two hypotheses have been formulated. The first is that wineries that do not allocate specific resources to sustainability management make mitigation decisions without optimising economic and environmental profitability. The second is that the organisational culture of the company conditions the adoption of mitigation measures. Following this path, the Vid-Expert project has created a digital mitigation management support system for wine companies. It aims to make it easier for wine professionals to select the optimal measures for their specific case. Based on the Methodological Recommendations of the OIV, a catalogue of available measures has been constructed. With the data entered by the user, an advanced software tool calculates the carbon footprint of the organisation, identifies the relevant emission sources and suggests corresponding mitigation measures. The suggestions prioritise the measures according to their cost-benefit ratio and their affinity with the characteristics of the company. The system enables management tracking over time.

Gestion des mesures d’atténuation par les entreprises vinicoles : allier durabilité et rentabilité

La transition vers une économie décarbonée exige des entreprises qu’elles prennent des mesures d’atténuation. Le secteur vitivinicole est l’un des plus intéressés par cette question. Sur la base d’études antérieures, deux hypothèses ont été formulées. La première est que les entreprises vinicoles qui n’allouent pas de ressources spécifiques à la gestion de la durabilité prennent des décisions d’atténuation sans optimiser la rentabilité économique et environnementale. La seconde est que la culture organisationnelle de l’entreprise conditionne l’adoption de mesures d’atténuation. Dans cette optique, le projet Vid-Expert a créé un système numérique d’aide à la gestion des mesures d’atténuation pour les entreprises vinicoles. Il vise à permettre aux professionnels du vin de sélectionner plus facilement les mesures optimales pour leur cas spécifique. Sur la base des recommandations méthodologiques de l’OIV, un catalogue des mesures disponibles a été élaboré. À partir des données saisies par l’utilisateur, un outil logiciel avancé calcule l’empreinte carbone de l’organisation, identifie les sources d’émission pertinentes et propose des mesures d’atténuation correspondantes. Les suggestions classent les mesures par ordre de priorité en fonction de leur rapport coût-bénéfice et de leur affinité avec les caractéristiques de l’entreprise. Le système permet un suivi de la gestion dans le temps.

Sustainability as system innovation: sustainability as system innovation: a returnable system for glass wine bottles

Introduction increasing sustainability is essential and a societal challenge, requiring fundamental changes in behaviour and attitudes. This applies to both producers and consumers. For the wine industry in particular, such a change is a major challenge. An eip-agri research project is evaluating the introduction of a returnable glass system in the german wine industry as a key solution for increasing sustainability. Given the need for change associated with a returnable system, the project is theoretically grounded in systems innovation, as this approach provides solutions for complex, transformative change.

Direct SPME GC-MS determination of volatile congeners in wines without sample pre-treatment

In this work “ethanol as an internal standard” method was used for the SPME GC-MS quantification of volatile congeners in wines. Our aim was to develop a fast and simple method of wine analysis without additional procedures, reagents etc. A row of standard solutions containing some frequently found congeners in wine was prepared gravimetrically. Suggested method was compared with traditional internal standard method.

Contrast of unfair trade practices in business-to-business relationships in the agricultural and food supply chain: An overview from the vitivinicultural perspective

According to the Directive EU 2019/633, European Union settled a minimum harmonised framework of rules to ensure the prohibitions of unfair commercial practices in business to business relationship of agrifood sector.

Acceptance of fungus-resistant grape varieties from the perspective of producers and consumers in Germany

Fungus-resistant grape varieties (frgv) are an important field of research in viticulture, as they represent a way of reducing the use of copper-containing pesticides and thus minimising the environmental impact. The literature suggests that resistant grape varieties are a promising solution to the problem of using copper-containing pesticides in viticulture and that their quality has improved in recent years. However, there are still challenges in the acceptance and dissemination of FRGV by wine producers and consumers.

The bottleneck/cork interface: A key parameter for wine aging in bottle

The shelf life of wine is a major concern for the wine industry. This is particularly true for wines intended for long cellaring, which are supposed to reach their peak after an ageing period ranging from a few months to several years, or even decades. Low, controlled oxygen inputs through the closure system are generally necessary for the wine to evolve towards its optimum organoleptic characteristics. Our previous studies have already shown that the interface between the cork and the bottleneck plays a crucial role in the transfer of oxygen into the bottled wine.
