Zoning of a Newly-Planted Vineyard: Spatial Variability of Physico-Chemical Soil Properties
Soil Systems, 2020 Soil properties show a high spatio-temporal variability, affecting productivity and crop quality within a given field. In new vineyard plantations, with changes in the initial topographic profile, this variability is exacerbated due to the incorporation ...

Prediction of Nitrogen Dosage in ‘Alicante Bouschet’ Vineyards with Machine Learning Models
Plants, 2022 Vineyard soils normally do not provide the amount of nitrogen (N) necessary for red wine production. Traditionally, the N concentration in leaves guides the N fertilization of vineyards to reach high grape yields and chemical composition under the ...

Managing Vineyard Topography and Seasonal Variability to Improve Grape Quality and Vineyard Sustainability [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 Topography may induce variability in meteorological conditions at the meso-scale level and could influence grape quality. Understanding the impact of topography on grape ripening allows for the development of sustainable management practices that include topographical influences in their consideration.

Ochratoxin A Management in Vineyards by Lobesia botrana Biocontrol [PDF]
Toxins, 2013 Grape berries attacked by Lobesia botrana larvae are more easily infected by Aspergillus section Nigri (black aspergilli) ochratoxigenic species. Two-year field trials were carried out in Apulia (Italy) to evaluate a bioinsecticide control strategy against L. botrana and the indirect effect on reducing ochratoxin A (OTA) contamination in vineyards.

AN INNOVATIVE SYSTEM FOR VINEYARD MANAGEMENT IN SICILY
Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2010 The aim of this study was to monitor the micro-climate of the grapevine in order to detect the adversities of the spring period (especially April and May), while reducing the operating costs of the vineyard, and increasing the overall quality of grapes. For this purpose a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) was used.

Microbiome of vineyard soils is shaped by geography and management [PDF]
Microbiome, 2019 Abstract Background Despite their importance as a reservoir of biodiversity, the factors shaping soil microbial communities and the extent by which these are impacted by cultivation are still poorly understood. Using 16S rRNA gene and ITS sequencing, we characterized the soil microbiota of vineyards and of
