Methodologies and Results in Grapevine Research

Abstract

In France the concept of precision viticulture is a topical subject in relation with the “Grenelle of environment” interministerial meeting and recommendation. Crop productivity must be increased, but in the same time a strong reduction of the environmental impact is needed. New technologies of Information and Communication (NTIC) provide potential responses to this challenge of quality. These technologies give solutions to manage pesticide applications thanks to field work assistance tools. They also allow continuous monitoring and recording of the field operations to implement traceability and automatic field logbooks. This paper presents the results of LIFE AWARE & TICSAD projects based on NTIC. It will deal with the possible tracks allowing a better management of news methods of treatment .
