Projected changes of grapevine phenology in Belgian and South African vineyards under climate change scenarios
The concept of ‘terroir’ describes the interplay of the environmental factors that affect the grapevine. This includes but is not limited to climate, soil composition, vineyard management, topography, and geology.
Under-row low competitive herbaceous cover: A sustainable alternative to herbicide in vineyards
Weeds are undesirable plants in agroecosystems as they compete with the crop for essential resources such as light, water and nutrients, compromising the final yield and its quality.
Grapevine drought tolerant ideotypes to adapt viticulture to climate change
Climate change is challenging the resilience of grapevine, one of the most important crops worldwide. Adapting viticulture to a hotter and drier future will require a multifaceted approach that must include new management strategies, increased irrigation efficiency, and the identification of more drought tolerant genotypes.
Yield prediction assessment before bloom and at veraison in a cv. Airén high yielding vineyard in Toledo (La Mancha, Spain)
Anticipation in the possible responses of grapevines to environmental variations is key to adjust field work in view of a more effective management. This idea has been the driving force behind the current work, which seeks to understand the interaction patterns of the vine with its habitat throughout the growing cycle.
Post-plant nematicides: too little, too late for Northern root-knot nematode management
Context and Purpose. Management of plant-parasitic nematodes in perennial cropping systems such as wines grapes is challenging.
Perceptions of livestock integration in South African vineyards
Context and purpose of the study. Conventional viticulture relies heavily on synthetic inputs (fertilizers, pesticides), as well as mechanization to manage pests, weeds, and diseases and maximize yields.
Redwine project: increasing microalgae biomass feedstock by valorising wine gaseous and liquid residues
Global warming due to greenhouse gases (GHG) has become a serious worldwide concern.
Evaluation of field inoculation of Kocuria rhizophila and Streptomyces violaceoruber as biostimulants under water availability conditions in grapevines
Agricultural productivity must promote management systems that incorporate sustainability principles, and viticulture is no exception.
Modulating the phyllosphere microbiome in grapevine using plant biostimulants to enhance protection against biotic and abiotic stress
Context and purpose of the study. Climate change scenarios predict ever increasing frequency of drought events and coupled with disease outbreaks poses survival risks to perennial fruit crops such as grapevine.
