The influence of climatic factors on the level and quality of Yield of Vranac variety
The grape vine is a perennial plant, which during its growth and development has special requirements according to agri-ecological conditions in the cultivation area. The favourable conditions of the soil and climate are the most important factors for successful growth and development, which lead to…
Automated irrigation management in the vineyard: the Italian-Israeli "Irrigate" project
Developing an automated irrigation management program through climate, plant and soil controlling sensors to manage the impact of drought on vine productivity and grape quality is the goal of the Italian-Israeli bi-annual research project "Irrigate", launched in 2014 and co-ordinated by the Universi…
Effect of water stress on plant and grape content
At the same time as the experimental tests carried out with Ersa, the group of researchers at the University of Udine has started to deal with various water deficit projects, coordinated by prof. Enrico Peterlunger, focusing on the effect that the water deficit has not only on the physiology of the …
Chemical composition and sensorial properties of Vranac wine in the Skadar lake area
Owing to its geographical position and favourable climate, grape growing and winemaking have always been developed in Montenegro and have traditionally been based on Vranac and Kratošija, two autochthone wines. Kratošija variety had dominated until the emergence of phylloxera; however, its role …
Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo and the Italian vineyards sector
The importance of Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo in the grapevine nursery business is highlighted with a yearly production of more than 60 million grafted vine plants. Today the 250 cooperative members are facing a very important and difficult task: to ensure and make available in the 28 vine-growing co…
Irrigation in the vineyard
Irrigation and its management, however, remain an instrument in the hands of the farmer to optimise the productive performance of the vineyard. In particular, the application of a moderate and controlled water deficit makes it possible to produce the highest quality grapes, while maintaining a satis…
Leaf removal and technological maturation of grapes
At the same time, leaf removal can lead to better technological maturation of grapes - higher sugar accumulation and lower titratable acidity - and promotes better phenolic complexity, mainly due to increased concentration of flavonoids and anthocyanins. The same international researchers have verif…
"FOOD EAST" - RESEARCH AND INNOVATION FORUM and Carta di Milano: the Excellences of Friuli Venezia Giulia and Central-Eastern Europe for Sustainability in the Agri-Food sector
Following the Milan event, the FVG region, also organized in June 2015 the event dedicated to "Food East" - Research and Innovation Forum 2015 to make a contribution to some crucial issues of the global food challenge that will accompany us for the next few years by providing concrete commitments to…
Experimentation: the true power for innovation
The secret of VCR’s primacy lies in the never-ending search for new varieties, clones and crossings that can give better and better results for the growers. Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo has gone through all the major strands of the research in the grapevine nursery domain, such as: from micropropaga…
Water stress in the vineyard
The vine is a plant that is well suited to arid hot environments. Many vineyard areas are characterized by limited seasonal precipitation, in some cases there is availability to irrigate and resort to planned irrigation or rescue operations, in other cases the inability to resort or, following the a…
First experimental tests on water management in vineyard in Friuli: Pignolo and Sauvignon
Ersa, together with the University of Udine, already carried out tests in 2006 at the Tenuta Villanova Farm in Villanova di Farra d'Isonzo (GO) on the vineyards of Pignolo (Friulian autochthonous grape variety) and Sauvignon, both bred Guyot with distances of 0.70 mx 2.41 and 1 mx 2.40 to determine …
Vineyard threats: grey molds and rot
The vine growing is conditioned by several factors, among which the availability of water and mineral elements, plays a leading role. In situations characterized by water and/or nutritional deficiency, the development of the basal leaves is particularly limited and normally the management of the gre…
Clonal selection of Vranac in Montenegro
Bearing in mind the importance of Vranac variety for the Montenegrin viticulture, work on the clonal selection of this variety has started in the 2004 year thanks to the collaboration between University of Montenegro Faculty of Biotechnology and the “13. jul Plantaže”, the biggest private w…
Effect of fermentation temperature on polyphenolic composition and sensory properties of red Vranac wines1
Vranac grapes are exceptionally rich in colouring matter contained mostly in the skin, flesh and juice of the berry. Until 2005, no detailed research has been conducted to examine the technological factors that affect the polyphenolic potential of this variety.
A study on the effect of three diffe…
Science can be Good to Eat: a Documentary by the FVG Region and the Science Park Area
Food safety and nutrition are at the top of European citizens' priorities and the agri-food sector is the first economic sector in the continent. It is widely believed that our survival bases, land and water, are best preserved so that they can drink and feed everywhere the planet Earth population. …
Effects of leaf removal on grape quality
Since 2007 in Friuli, as well as in some central Italian regions and other international areas, experimentation has been started to verify the effect of different leaf removal modes on health and on the qualitative characteristics of grapes.
If leaf removal is applied before flowering, in addition t…
Leaf removal: a prevention against fungal diseases
In Friuli Venezia Giulia, the grey mold from Botrytis cinerea is among the most dangerous diseases for the vine, especially in compact bunch varieties. In fact, the high average rainfall, in the weeks prior to the harvest, determines the explosion of infections and specific fungicides can not be use…
Enhance defence through a shared georeferenced cloud network
Thanks to a pilot project involving the interconnection of embedded devices to a cloud network, these data and this detection methodology are now shared among consultants and technicians working in the vine industry. "We have taken advantage of the necessity to make data and support for integrated p…
From the mobile data collection device to the phytopathological cloud for real-time data sharing
Giovanni Bigot, with his consulting company "Perleuve", is surely one of the most innovative technicians in the area. Already in 2003, he started using his mobile device to store field data. Eleven years later, its idea, thanks to the collaboration with regional authorities such as the Plant Hea…
