Research aimed at conserving or increasing occupation levels and the necessary resources to safeguard an equiprofit for viticultural enterprise–research on technical, socio-economic, existential and “metaethical” aspects according to the “metaethical great chain” production model

Abstract

The objective of this third body of research was to conserve or increase the use of labor and other resources while guarantying a just profit for the enterprise, society and the entire chain. This research was conducted on the following types of training systems: highly expansive, expansive and slightly expansive. In two previous studies we focused on classic Raggi-Bellussi and classic Pergola di Soave. We now present the results on classic Tendone, Sylvoz, Guyot and Cordon de Royat. We outline the details which lead us to conclude that is possible to preserve or increase profit to preserve or increase enterprise profit, increasing resources cost and increasing enterprise occupation levels to adopt the Tendone training system instead of Sylvoz, Guyot and particularly Cordon de Royat, the latter of which not inferior vine and wine enologically  and organoleptic classical quality. Results from research started 10 years ago when everybody was think about cutting resources and costs, are interesting from a technical, socio-economic and ethical point of view, especially given the current historical situation at the local, national, european, and international level.
