Main viticultural soils in Castilla – La Mancha (Spain)

Modern viticulture in Croatia and the world is mainly based on the grapevine varieties susceptible to various diseases and pests, which leads to unsustainable use of large amounts of pesticides. The sustainable development of viticulture in the future will only be possible by increasing the resistance of the grapevine through the development of new resistant varieties. Breeding programs have been launched in the leading wine-growing countries with the aim of developing resistant varieties possessing high quality level. Coratia is rich in in native grapevine varieties that are the basis of wine production, and are not included in the breeding programs of other countries.

High temperatures typical of warm climates cause the colour of red wines to become increasingly unstable over time.

In this work, we present a method based on very high spatial resolution (VHSR) aerial images acquired in the visible domain and that map soil surface diversity at the hillslope

Pesticides are considered one of the main causes for arthropod decline in agriculture which in turn may affect ecosystem services such as natural pest control and soil fertility.
