Nuove soluzioni e strumenti per l’agricoltura e la viticoltura di precisione

Abstract

[English version below]

GEOSPHERA s. r. l. e TERR.A.IN. CNS, forti della grande esperienza dei loro collaboratori nell’ambito delle scienze naturali, della geologia, della geofisica e dell’informatica, garantiscono risposte innovative alle problematiche della moderna agricoltura rivolgendosi direttamente ai viticoltori, ai commercianti vinicoli ed ai liberi professionisti.
La necessità impellente di migliorare la produttività delle colture trova oggi un valido strumento nei nuovi metodi di perfezionamento della gestione del suolo agricolo che includono:
• mappaggio mediante remote sensing
• analisi e gestione dei dati mediante “geographic information systems” (GIS)
• analisi geofisiche mirate sito-specifiche
• carotaggi, trivellazioni ed escavazioni per determinare un “soil survey”

GEOSPHERA Ltd and TERR.A.IN. CNS, using the experience of its collaborators on natural, geological, geophysical and computer fields, provide solutions for Agriculture and precision viticulture farmers, growers, retailers and agricultural agronomic consultants.
The need to improve the productivity of crops, find today large aid in new methods of study and soil management, including:
• soil mapping using remote sensing
• analysis and data management using geographic information systems (GIS)
• geophysical site-specific targeted sampling
• drilling and excavation for the soil survey

A vine physiology-based terroir study in the AOC-Lavaux region in Switzerland

Understanding how different pedoclimatic conditions interact with vine and berry physiology, and subsequently impact wine quality, is paramount for an good valorization of viticultural terroirs and can help to optimize mitigation strategies in the face of global warming

Swiss program for the creation of fungal disease resistant grape varieties in Switzerland

Grapevine breeding is part of the research program of Agroscope in Switzerland since 1965. From 1965 to 1995, the aim of the Vitis vinifera crosses was to obtain a high resistance to grey rot (Botrytis cinerea), one of the most virulent fungal pathogens in the Swiss vineyard. In 2021, the grape varieties released from this first breeding program covered 936 ha of the 15’000 ha of the Swiss vineyard.
In 1996, a second breeding program aimed at obtaining, by classical interspecific hybridization, grape varieties resistant to downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) and powdery mildew (Erisyphe necator) and less sensitive to grey rot (Botrytis cinerea). In order to accelerate and make the selection process more reliable, an early biochemical test was developed based on the natural defense mechanisms of the vine against downy mildew (stilbene phytoalexins). The synthesis of stilbenes (i.e., resveratrol and its oxidized dimers - and -viniférine) and pterostilbenes (methylated derivative) is among the most efficient induced defense mechanisms of grapevine against fungal pathogens on both the leaves and the clusters.

Adapting wine production to climate change through the exploration of the diversity of Vitis vinifera cultivars

Major factors involved in wine quality and typicity are soil type, climatic conditions, plant material (rootstock and cultivar), vineyard management practices and winemaking conditions.
