One factor of precision agriculture is remote sensing, through which we can monitor
vegetation health and condition. Much research has been conducted in the field of remote …

Notions of terroir and their conceptualization through agro-environmental sciences have
become popular in many parts of world. Originally developed for wine, terroir now …

The fungus Botrytis cinerea causes severe diseases in many crops. In grapevines, it causes
Botrytis bunch rot (BBR), one of the most reported diseases worldwide. It affects all …

Thermal imaging can become a readily usable tool for crop agricultural water management,
since it allows a quick determination of canopy surface temperature that, as linked to …

An effective management of precision viticulture processes relies on robust crop monitoring
procedures and, in the near future, to autonomous machine for automatic site-specific crop …

The aim of this study was to assess the spatial variability of plant vigor in a vineyard in a
humid climate. Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was used for relating the …

The variability in grape ripening is associated with the fact that each grape berry undergoes
its own biochemical processes. Traditional viticulture manages this by averaging the …

In order to exploit remote sensing data operationally for precision agriculture applications,
efficient and automated methods are required for the accurate detection of vegetation, crops …

One of the key steps that would lead winegrowers to implement precision viticulture as a
management tool would be the clear demonstration of the agronomic and oenological …

Grapevine phenology and total soluble solids (TSS) accumulation are important information
to plan agricultural operation in the vineyards over the season. The study aims at identifying …
