Valutazione dell’equilibrio vegeto-produttivo con metodiche di proximal sensing

Abstract

Nel biennio 2008-2009, nell’ambito di un progetto multidisciplinare coordinato e finanziato dal Consorzio Tuscania, 4 vigneti in differenti zone della Toscana sono stati monitorati con strumenti di proximal sensing al fine di valutare la variabilità riscontrabile e ottenere delle indicazioni sulle risposte vegetative delle piante e quanti-qualitative delle produzioni. La creazione di mappe di NDVI (uno degli indici di vegetazione più comunemente utilizzati) e di spessore delle chiome (CT, derivato dalla lettura dei sensori ad ultrasuoni), ha permesso di evidenziare nette differenze tra i vigneti studiati e all’interno dei singoli appezzamenti, oltre ad una forte influenza temporale sulle caratteristiche delle chiome; tali evidenze sono state confermate da un’analisi della varianza multivariata. I dati rilevati sono stati correlati con alcuni indici comunemente utilizzati per la valutazione vegeto-produttiva delle piante ottenendo delle correlazioni significative, a conferma della validità dei rilievi effettuati e del loro possibile utilizzo come metodo di monitoraggio della situazione esistente in vigneto e di supporto nei processi decisionali

English version: In 2008, collaborating with Tuscania Consortium, Ibimet of Florence and IASMA, a research was started with the aim of understanding and monitoring existing variability in vineyards and, basing on it, evaluating agronomical practices useful for qualitative and quantitative responses optimization. With this purpose, some experimental parcels were chosen in 4 different Sangiovese and Cabernet S. vineyards placed in 3 areas of Tuscany. Parcels were made by the use of different canopy management techniques in various vigour zones. In established periods (fruit setting, veraison and before technological maturity) some instrumental records were made, using ATV mounted optical and ultrasonic sensors; at the same time, indirect measurements of leaf surface and a Point Quadrat were performed. Statistical analysis allowed to validate instrumental relives and to underline the capability of the system of surveying both spatial and temporal variability both an artificial one, made by agronomical practices.

BORDEAUX RED WINES WITHOUT ADDED SULFITES SPECIFICITIES: COMPOSITIONAL AND SENSORY APPROACHES TOWARDS HIGHLIGHTING AND EXPLAI-NING THEIR SPECIFIC FRUITINESS AND COOLNESS

With the development of naturality expectations, wines produced without any addition of sulfur dioxide (SO₂) become very popular for consumers and such wines are increasingly present on the market. Recent studies also showed that Bordeaux red wines without added SO₂ could be differentiated from a sensory point of view from similar wines produced with SO₂¹. Thus, the aim of the current study was to characterize from a sensory point of view, specific aromas of wines without added SO₂ and to identify compounds involved.

Vitis vinifera Manseng noir is an alternative red variety for low alcohol wines of strong structure and soft tannins

In 2019, we have planted the red variety Manseng Noir, as it has been shown that it is the only sister of the Tannat grape. Tannat was introduced to Uruguay in 1870 from the south-western regions of France.

Vineyard management strategies adopted to mitigate the impacts of climate change affect the evolution of phenolics and color during bottle aging of Aglianico wines

In recent years several strategies have been proposed to cope with the effect of climate change on grape berry quality but only a few studies have dealt with the influence of management practices implemented in the field (e.g. irrigation,summer pruning, etc.), on the evolution of wines over time. 

Handbook of the charter of the universal holistic metaethics  sustainability 4.1c” for certification and warranty bio-métaétique 4.1c

Defined the new paradigm, the applied philosophy, the methodology, the algorithm of the “Charter for Universal Holistic MetaEthic Sustainability 4.1C17.18”, research has continued to define and write, an
handbook that should be:”Complete Universal Holistic MetaEthics 4.1C of descriptors” of the “Charter for Sustainability Universal Holistic MetaEthic 4.1C17.18” with basic and applicative indexing. In these activities and research we have involved over 3500 Italian and non-Italian people from the research world to simple but educated, enlightened and enlightening citizens and we have analyzed over 180000
entries concerning the descriptors above, which represent the basic “descriptors”.

Indicators of Sustainable Vineyard Soil Management: Metrics for Assessing Environmental Impacts

The vital role of soils in supporting life on our planet cannot be overstated. Soils provide numerous ecosystem services and functions, including biomass production, carbon sequestration, physical support, biological habitat, and genetic reserve, among others. Understanding the characteristics and sensitivity of soils in a specific terroir, along with effective soil management practices, is crucial for the sustainable management of natural resources.
