Viticulture in a Changing Climate. Session 1. Physiology of Stress in Grapevine: Challenges and Solutions

Convener: Aaron Fait , BIDR & Nurit Agam, BIDR

Physiology of stress in grapevine: challenges and solutions.
Farmers have selected plant materials (variety, rootstock) and viticultural practices in accordance with local climatic conditions in order to optimize yield and quality. Common practices include irrigation, fertilization, soil tillage, disease control, pruning, trellising and harvesting. These viticultural practices can be modified to adapt to climatic variability and to optimize grape yield, aroma and flavor. In recent years, strategies applied in arid land viticulture were introduced into central Europe as a means of buffering the impact of climate change. The development of ad-hoc practices is thus becoming pivotal in facing the upcoming uncertainties in relation to the environment.
