La haie bocagère comme critère de zonage à l’échelle parcellaire

Abstract

Dans les AOC Française, la zone de production de la matière première peut faire l’objet d’une délimitation parcellaire basée sur des critères de milieu physique et d’usage D’autre part de nombreux zonages environnementaux se développent et les AOC sont appelées à intégrer des dispositions relatives à ces préoccupations. Les haies, à travers leurs effets sur les modifications locales du climat régional et sur la biodiversité fonctionnelle, peuvent impacter le fonctionnement de la vigne et des vergers. C’est à ce titre que leur prise en compte comme critère de délimitation est envisagé.
L’examen des effets de la haie sur le climat parcellaire montre qu’au sein d’une parcelle bocagère, on assiste globalement à une réduction de la vitesse du vent et du pouvoir évaporant de l’air, à une augmentation de la température moyenne, de l’amplitude thermique journalière par élévation des températures diurnes et diminution températures nocturnes et à un risque accru des gelées printanières.
Le rôle de la haie sur la biodiversité fonctionnelle est décrit à travers une liste d’auxiliaires entomophages et pollinisateurs auxquels elle fournie des abris pour l’hivernage et la reproduction ainsi que des ressources vitales grâce aux proies et aux fleurs qu’elle abrite en dehors des périodes végétatives de la vigne ou du verger, comme par exemple le pollen et nectar offerts aux espèces dont seules les larves sont zoophages.
Un exemple d’intégration de la présence des haies dans la méthode de zonage des terroirs viticoles développé par l’Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (INRA) d’Angers est cité ainsi qu’une première application à la délimitation parcellaire d’une AOC cidricole de l’ouest de la France. Mais la perspective de l’élargissement du recours à présence de haies dans les opérations de zonage nécessitera de nombreux travaux préalables. Par exemple, les distances aux haies et leur hauteur devront être précisées en fonction des caractéristiques climatiques locales et par rapport aux distances parcourables par les auxiliaires recherchés. De manière générale, si la haie fait son entrée dans le zonage des terroirs, elle sera plutôt intégrée comme un principe de délimitation dont découleront des critères spécifiques en fonction des situations.

English version: In french AOC, basic products can be localized on a field basis according to natural and human criteria. Besides, many environmental zoning are developped. Thus AOC must nowadays take this concern into account. This paper deals with edges as a new zoning criterium. Edges have two main impacts on vine and orchard productions: that is local climate and functionnal biodiversity changes.
Climatic changes mainly rely on wind speed and evaporation decrease and an increase in temperature, temperature range and risk of spring frost. Edges impacts on functionnal biodiversity are largely described through a list of entomophages and pollinisators that benefit from winter and reprodcution shelter and food reserve. Preys and flowers may develop in edges even when the crop not in vegetative stage yet. Pollen and nectar feed adults insects whose larvae is zoophagus. This paper also relates two french experience of edges integration in the terroir definition: one for vine in the Loire Valley and one ifor cider in the west of France.
Further work will be needed to enlarge AOC zoning with this environmental criterium such as the distance between edge and crop, local climatic change characteristics, specific auxilliary insects and vegetative species etc.

Developing effective physiological strategies to rejuvenate virus-infected vineyards by lowering the virus load in infected grapevines

Context and purpose of the study. The wine industries face significant challenges from two highly detrimental viruses: leafroll and red blotch.

Organic volatile compounds as suitable markers of grapevine response to defense elicitors in the vineyard

In greenhouse, emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) by grapevine leaves has already been reported in response to the defence elicitor sulfated laminarin (PS3) [1]. In order to check that this response was not specific to PS3, experiments were conducted on Vitis cv Marselan plantlets with several other elicitors of different chemical structures: i.e. Bastid® (COS-OGA),

Green berries on Gewürztraminer (Vitis vinifera L.) in South Tyrol (Italy)

The grape variety Gewürztraminer is known to be affected by two physiological disorders namely berry shrivel and bunch stem necrosis. During the season 2014 we noticed a new symptomatology type of ripening disorder on the variety. The new symptom showed not all berries fallowing the normal maturation stages, but single berries remaining at a soft but green stage till harvest. The broad distribution of these so called “green berries” symptoms in different production sites of our region, caused huge damage due to the difficulty of eliminating single berries per bunch before harvesting. Therefore, the Research Centre Laimburg began to investigate the reasons and origins of this new symptom. This work shows the results of first attempts to find causes for the symptom as well as the resulting approach to mitigate symptoms. Applications of magnesium leaf fertilizer showed first promising results against this putative disorder. To study the causal effect of the green berries 30 symptomatic vineyards in 2014 have been selected for a monitoring during the season 2016. To evaluate the foliar nutrient treatment two vineyards have been selected for application of magnesium sulfate and magnesium chloride. Leaf and berry nutrient analysis, as well as the main quality parameters during ripening have been performed. As soon as “green berries” symptoms appeared, incidence and severity have been evaluated. Most of the symptomatic vineyards of the 2016 monitoring showed light to clear magnesium deficit symptoms on their foliage. Only during the seasons 2020 and 2021 “green berries” symptoms could be found in the leaf fertilizer treatment vineyards. Both seasons showed a significant effect of the magnesium treatments to reduce the incidence and severity of the symptom. It seems that the appearance of the “green berries” symptom on Gewürztraminer is correlated to a disturbed uptake of magnesium of the vines.

The limonene-derived mint aroma compounds in red wines. Recent advances on analytical, chemical aspects and sensory aspects

In recent years, the ageing bouquet of red Bordeaux wines has been partially unveiled by a chemical and sensory point of view1–3. Minty and fresh notes were found to play a key role in the definition of this complex concept, moreover the freshness dimension in fine aged red wines plays an important role in typicity judgement by wine professionals

New varieties descendant from Monastrell with lower sugar and high phenolic content adapted to warm climates

Given that climate change is a continuous process, it is necessary to constantly search for new strategies that help the viticulturist sector to mitigate its consequences. All adaptation strategies will have a greater or lesser effect that in turn will be marked by the times of action. As a long-term action, a genetic breeding program to obtain new varieties descendant from Monastrell has been developed in the Region of Murcia (more specifically, in the IMIDA Research Center) since 1997. In this program, new red varieties have been developed through directed crosses of the Monastrell variety with other varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo and Syrah.
