    Abstract Summer pruning encompasses a series of operations typically performed on the grapevine during the growing season. This review provides an update on the research conducted over the last 20 years on the modalities and strategies of main summer pruning operations, which include shoot positioning and thinning, shoot trimming, leaf removal, and cluster thinning, with a special focus on their adaptation to climate change occurring in Mediterranean areas. Three main novelties emerged from the survey. First, due to a common need to shelter clusters against overheating and sunburn-related damages, shoot thinning and leaf removal are practices that are now being applied in a much more cautious and conservative manner. Second, the meaning of summer pruning is evolving because operations are being used as precious tools to direct ripening toward a desired direction rather than being received passively. Third, some operations, such as leaf removal, have disclosed very high plasticity, which means that, depending on the timing and modalities of the intervention, yield can be either increased or decreased and ripening anticipated or postponed. In an era where economic and environmental sustainability have to find a good compromise, cluster thinning is increasingly being depicted as an extraordinary operation that should be left to occasional occurrences of overcropping. Moreover, summer pruning is a tool through which growers can, to an extent, exploit the potentialities offered by climate change. For instance, the crop-forcing technique, under the different configurations of single and double cropping within the same season, has been trialed promisingly in several regions and cultivars. The principle of forcing is to unlock the dormant bud during the first year by removing at least the young organs present on the shoot within a time window between the end of the flowering and pea-size stages. In particular, when it is applied in a double-cropping mode, the preliminary results related to Pinot noir, Grenache, Tempranillo, and Maturana tinta indicate that two harvests separated by 30-50 days can be obtained, with the latter having superior quality in terms of a lower level of pH and higher levels of acidity, anthocyanins, and phenolics.

    Abstract The double pruning technique on Sangiovese vines, based on pre-pruning in February and finishing in April, induced a delay of bud break, which is an approach to avoid spring frost damage. The field experiment was conducted on Sangiovese vines mechanically spur-pruned during dormancy in February and manually finished post budburst to test the potential of ‘double-pruning’ approach to prevent the spring frost damage. This technique, associated with the finishing performed when the apical shoots on the mechanically-shortened canes were about 10 cm long, allowed to keep the basal buds in a dormant phase for almost 15 days, extending the resistance period against the spring frosts, particularly important for the cultivars characterized by early bud-break. Yield reduction per vine was -22% due only to the incidence of unsprouted buds, while the grape ripening profile was delayed with an increase of acidity and phenols and a decrease of pH and soluble solids.

    Abstract Increasing the use of cover crops (CCs) is a necessity in sustainable viticulture, although it might clash with possible excessive competition towards vines. Especially in a climate-change scenario, the latter feature should be minimized while maintaining ecosystem services. Aimed at identifying CCs for vineyard floor management, the trial characterized several species according to their evapotranspiration (ET) rates, root growth patterns, and soil aggregate stability potential. The study was performed in 2020 in Piacenza (Northern Italy) on 15 CC species grown in pots kept outdoor and classified as grasses (GR), legumes (LE) and creeping (CR). Together with bare soil (control), they were arranged in a complete randomized block design. CCs ET was assessed through a gravimetric method, starting before mowing and then repeated 2, 8, 17 and 25 days thereafter. Above-ground dry biomass (ADW), root length density (RLD), root dry weight (RDW) and root diameter class length (DCL) were measured, and mean weight diameter (MWD) was calculated within 0-20 cm depth. Before mowing, ET was the highest in LE (18.6 mm day

    Abstract A web-based app was developed and tested to provide predictions of phenological stages of budburst, flowering and veraison, as well as warnings for meteorological drought. Such predictions are especially urgent under a climate change scenario where earlier phenology and water scarcity are increasingly frequent. By utilizing a calibration data set provided by 25 vineyards observed in the Emilia Romagna Region for two years (2021-2022), the above stages were predicted as per the binary event classification paradigm and selection of the best fitting algorithm based on the comparison between several metrics. The seasonal vineyard water balance was calculated by subtracting daily bare or grassed soil evapotranspiration (ET

    Abstract Barbera and Croatina are the two most important grapevine varieties characterizing wines from several districts in North-West of Italy; they coexist on the hilly territories sited south of the Po river (historically known as “western-cispadana” area) where they are also blended together to obtain local wines such as Buttafuoco and Rosso Oltrepo Pavese in Lombardia, and Gutturnio in Emilia Romagna. Ervi is an intraspecific crossbreed between Barbera and Croatina performed in the ‘70s and selected over the last decades in order to improve some agronomical traits of both parents. The present study represents the first characterization of development, production and enological performance of the cv. Ervi in Lombardia and, more specifically, in the Oltrepo Pavese wine district. Long-term results related to a field-based assessment as well as the sensory profiling of wines produced at a micro scale are reported. When compared to Barbera and Croatina, Ervi shows improved productivity respect to Croatina and a better composition as compared to both its parents. Results recommend the introduction of the cv. Ervi in Lombardia for the production of high quality red wines.

    Abstract Over the last 50 years, many approaches for extracting plant key parameters from remotely sensed data have been developed, especially in the last decade with the spread of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in agriculture. Multispectral sensors are very useful for the elaboration of common vegetation indices (VIs), however, the spectral accuracy and range may not be enough. In this scenario, hyperspectral (HS) technologies are gaining particular attention thanks to the highest spectral resolution, which allows deep characterization of vegetative/soil response. Literature presents few papers encompassing UAV-based HS applications in vineyard, a challenging conditions respect to other crops due to high presence of bare soil, grass cover, shadows and high heterogeneity canopy structure with different leaf inclination. The purpose of this paper is to present the first contribution combining traditional and multivariate HS data elaboration techniques, supported by strong ground truthing of vine ecophysiological, vegetative and productive variables. Firstly the research describes the UAV image acquisition and processing workflow to generate a 50 bands HS orthomosaic of a study vineyard. Subsequently, the spectral data extracted from 60 sample vines were elaborated both investigating the relationship between traditional narrowband VIs and grapevine traits. Then, multivariate calibration models were built using a double approach based on Partial Least Square (PLS) regression and interval-PLS (iPLS), to evaluate the correlation performance between the biophysical parameters and HS imagery using the whole spectral range and a selection of more relevant bands applying a variable selection algorithm, respectively. All techniques (VIs, PLS and iPLS) provided satisfactory correlation performances for the ecophysiological (

    Abstract There is a growing demand for technologies able to decrease the environmental impact of agricultural activities without penalizing quali-quantitative characteristics of productions. In the case of viticulture, one of the key problems is represented by the spray drift during fungicide treatments. The diffusion in operational farming contexts of technologies based on variable-rate and recycling tunnel sprayers is often limited by their cost and, for the latter, by their size and lower maneuverability, representing clear disadvantages especially in case of small farms or in hilly and mountain areas. We present a new digital technology implemented in a mobile app that supports the reduction of both the number of treatments and the amount of fungicide distributed per treatment. The technology is based (i) on an alert system that prevents unneeded treatments in case of no risk of infection and (ii) on the quantification of the optimal amounts of active ingredients and dilution water based on the sprayer type/settings and on leaf area index values estimated with a common smartphone. An internal database allows to adjust (in case of need) the active ingredient dose to assure full compliance with product's legal requirements. In case of heterogeneity in leaf area index values inside the vineyard, prescription maps are generated. Results from a 2-year case study in a vineyard in northern Italy are shown, where the system allowed to reduce by 26.4 % and 27.4 % (mean of two years), respectively, the seasonal amounts of fungicides and dilution water, and by 43.8 % the copper content in must. The high usability of the technology proposed (just a common smartphone is needed) and the fact that it does not require updating the farm machine park highlights the suitability of the proposed solution for operational farming conditions, including premium wine production districts often characterized by small farms in hilly areas.
