Accurate monitoring of grapevine phenology is essential for vineyard management and for understanding seasonal responses to climate variability (Reis et al., 2020).
Introduction: Meso-climatic variation increases in hilly terrain, influenced by changes in elevation, slope gradient and slope aspect (Ferretti, 2021).
In the face of environmental challenges and economic constraints, the transition to sustainable viticulture has become both a necessity and a strategic lever for winegrowing regions.
Spring frosts pose a significant threat to viticulture by damaging buds and, in severe cases, leading to their destruction.
As predicted by climate models, the rise in global temperatures is set to have a significant impact on vineyards.
The original paper, published in International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law (Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition & Springer Nature), “examines the intersection of innovation and tradition
Rootstocks are key to sustaining yield, wine style, and vineyard resilience under increasing climatic variability.
Wine producers in Switzerland face the dual challenge of high production costs and increasing competition from inexpensive imported wines.
Sustainability in Mediterranean viticulture increasingly depends on optimizing water use without compromising vine function, yield, or terroir expression.
In the recent decades, vineyards have been managed using herbicides and intensive tillage to eliminate competition of adventitious vegetation for resources.
