Climate variability and its effects in the Penedès vineyard region (NE Spain)

The sustainability and authenticity of grape juice production have gained increasing attention, particularly regarding the environmental impact and health benefits of organic practices.

similar to other agricultural producers, grape growers face increasing pressure to improve productivity and production efficiency while reducing their environmental impact. Threats due to extreme climate events, as well as the uncertainty of available water and labor, provide significant challenges to the future of grape production. This presentation will provide an integrated overview of the tools and technologies being developed to address these issues and to help growers manage vineyards in the future, including vineyard design, remote and proximal sensing, automation, data management and decision support systems, and germplsm improvement. The potential impact of these advancements on vineyard productivity, fruit quality, and sustainability will be discussed.

Since the use of sodium arsenite was banned in 2001, Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) have become even more widespread increasing (1).To avoid pathogen entry, pruning, an age-old practice, is increa- singly coming to the fore.

L’essai a été effectué dans un vignoble du cépage Nero d’Avola greffé sur 1103 Paulsen dans un terroir de la D.O.C Alcamo en Sicile. Le système de conduite des vignes était à espalier, la taille à cordon coursonné et l’irrigation à goutte a goutte. On a été confrontés trois types de traitements: A) vignes non irriguées; B) vignes irriguées quand le
