Innovative models in mechanized and sustainable vineyard management

Obiettivi
Objectives

The project aims at transferring innovative technical solutions developed by research institutes, and perfectly integrated with mechanization and sustainable viticulture, to farmers of the main regional wine-growing areas through mechanized management models. The project will allow winegrowers of Emilia-Romagna region to increase the vineyard management technical opportunities by improving their competitiveness within economic, environmental and social sustainability principles.

Activities

The project involves the creation of mechanized management models considering different aspects of vineyard management. In particular:
- Training systems best suited to mechanization of winter pruning and harvest;
- Canopy management techniques to obtain the best balance between yield and vegetative growth and the best berries composition;
- Management of crop protection with product recovery machine;
- Irrigation techniques with high efficiency;
- Fertilization models;
- Soil management with or without cover crops;
- Effects of mechanical harvest on grapes and wine.
