Research aimed to reduce production costs–results obtained at “Conegliano Campus” in 42 years of innovative research on vineyard full mecchanization and its effects on metaethical” “quality-profit” — first contribute

Abstract

The research studies offer a great contribution to the reduction of production costs in the following ways: 1- total reduction in vineyard operations, even down to a tenth, 2- a more equilibrated distribution of efforts put into operations during the year, 3- less tiresome work for vineyard workers, 4- decreased total production costs, 5- increased organoleptic quality of products, 6- increased economic quality for the business, 7- improvement of cultural and technical aspects for vineyard workers. With this research was possible to study operating machines already in use and to create in collaboration with other partner new machines as can be seen from various publications as for espalier, for GDC, for Pergole and Tendoni end for bushvine.

Risk of late frost events in viticulture – temperature trends, phenological observations and spatial analysis based on digital terrain models in Franconia/Germany

In the course of global warming a general decrease of frost days per year and in spring can be stated. However, in viticulture this matter of fact doesn´t lead to a reduction of the risk of damages to grapevines by late spring frost events.

Estimating leaf area and leaf area index in VSP trained grapevines under different management systems (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Riesling)

The aim of this study was to validate and implement different non-destructive methods of leaf area and leaf area index (LAI) determination in VSP trained grapevines (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Riesling) in a field trial comparing different management systems (i.e. integrated (GAP) and two different organic (European Union Regulation 834/07) management systems).

Classification for timing of flowering and veraison of a wide range of Vitis vinifera cultivars with the “GFV” model

In viticulture, the timing of phenology is critical to optimize grape quality potential particularly so in cool climates. Flowering and veraison are key phenological stages for grapevines.
