High resolution remote sensing for mapping intra-block vine vigour heterogeneity

Abstract

In vineyard management, the block is considered today as the technical work unit. However, considerable variability can exist inside a block with regard to physiological parameters, such as vigour, particularly because of soil heterogeneity. To represent this variability spatially, many measurements have to be taken, which is costly in both time and money. High resolution remote sensing appears to be an efficient tool for mapping intra-block heterogeneity. A vegetation index, the Normalized Difference Vegetative Index (NDVI), calculated with red and near infrared leaf reflectance can be used as a vine vigour indicator. Because of the cultivation of vines in rows, a specific image treatment is needed. Only high resolution remote sensing (pixels less than 20 cm per side) allows the discrimination between row pixels and inter-row ones. The significant correlation between NDVI and pruning weight and the possibility to map the vigour with the NDVI by means of high resolution remote sensing, show the ability of NDVI to assess intra-block variations of vine vigour.

Can different green manure fertilizations affect the vine balance and grape quality? First evidence of multi-year study

In the context of sustainable viticulture that implements organic practices to maintain soil fertility, green manuring plays a crucial role due to its ability to stock carbon and nitrogen in soil while supporting biodiversity.

Effect of irrigation and soil type on root growth and distribution of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Nero d’Avola grown in Sicily

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

The evaluation of different chemical compounds present in Uvalino wines was correlated with sensory analysis. The analysis showed a high content of polyphenolic compounds responsible for the organoleptic properties of wine, including color, astringency and bitterness.

Short-term canopy strategies to enhance grapevine adaptation to climate change

Context and purpose of the study – Viticulture faces significant challenges due to climate change, with increased frequency of extreme weather events impacting grapevine growth, grape quality, and wine production.

Preserving wine typicity in a climate change scenario: Examples from the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Aims: Wine typicity is defined as a reflection of varietal origins, cultures and traditions of the wine. These aspects are many times also extremely important when considering a wines quality. However, as climate change occurs the typicity of wines may also change. With the long history of winemaking it is possible to define a wines typicity and how it has changed as climate alters.
