Smart Sensing in a Vineyard for Advanced Viticultural Management

Proceedings of the 2014 International Workshop on Web Intelligence and Smart Sensing, 2014
Long-term monitoring of cultivation environments and a scientific understanding of tree vigor and grape quality are needed for advanced viticultural management. Cultivation environments, such as micrometeorological data and soil moisture, should be continuously monitored.

Agroecological management of a soil‐dwelling orthopteran pest in vineyards

Insect Science, 2017
AbstractThe efficacy of different combinations of undervine and inter‐row treatments for managing a soil‐dwelling orthopteran pest, weta (Hemiandrus sp.), in vineyards was investigated over 2 seasons. This insect damages vine buds, thus reducing subsequent grape yield. The undervine treatments comprised pea straw mulch, mussel shells, tick beans [Vicia

Biology and Management of Mealybugs in Vineyards

2012
Economic losses resulting from vineyard mealybug infestations have increased dramatically during the past decade. In response, there has been a cosmopolitan effort to improve control strategies and better understand mealybug biology and ecology, as well as their role as vectors of plant pathogens. Mealybugs are named for the powdery secretions covering

Wine differentiation of vineyard management regimes

Acta Alimentaria, 2006
The possibility of discrimination between wines was examined based on different vineyard management regimes as a potential source of differences in wine quality. The analysis covered three years in a Chardonnay vineyard, where different irrigation and fertigation regimes were applied.

Principles of Arthropod Pest Management in Vineyards

2012
The first appearance of Vitis vinifera L. has been dated to between 130 and 200 million years ago, with the human relationship to this plant dating from the Neolithic period. Wild grapes were harvested by foragers and early farmers. For thousands of years, the berry has been harvested for both medicinal and nutritional value and its history is ...

Fungicide Resistance Management in Vineyards

Pesticides, including fungicides, are often categorized as “site specific” or “multi-site”, describing how they interact with the target organism. Site specific products are typically just that – they disrupt a very specific pathway or function in the target organism.

Sustainable management of an intercropped Mediterranean vineyard

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 2014
In the Mediterranean area, the use of cover crops in vineyards is still debated and the results of the few scientific experiments considering the influence of cover crop on grapevine are often conflicting. This work aims at providing useful indications on sustainable management for irrigated vineyards growing in a hot and dry region.

Mite Vaccinations for Sustainable Management of Spider Mites in Vineyards

Ecological Applications, 1997
We have successfully released phytophagous Willamette mites into Zinfandel vineyards that have had chronic problems with the economically more damaging Pacific spider mites. These releases induced resistance in the grapevines, causing smaller populations of Pacific mites and higher berry sugar concentrations.

MANAGING ALCOHOL IN THE VINEYARD AND THE WINERY

dealcoholization significantly reduced the concentration of volatile esters, as did pre-fermentative dilution of the must using water. Pre-fermentative dilution with sugar solution to increase alcohol concentration led to wines with higher concentrations of volatile esters, terpenes and norisoprenoids that had noticeably higher aroma intensities of ...

ALTERNATIVE SOIL MANAGEMENT FOR STUDY VINEYARDS

Acta Horticulturae, 2004
Abstract In the significant part of the Hungarian vineyards with sandy soils, the intensive mechanisation of the last decades had a series of unfavourable impacts on the soil. For the partial elimination of the problems in soil biology life, soil structure and environment protection and for the development of the mechanisation technology we started to ...
