How to make your vineyard more resilient to climate change We are entering an era where climate patterns no longer follow predictable cycles. Temperatures continue to rise, rainfall becomes erratic, and weather events grow more violent and frequent. Climate adaptation and climate change resilience are becoming urgent challenges for wine growers. The new normal is…
A 2026 study in Northern Italy provides evidence supporting the benefits of low-density cattle integration in vineyards
Natural Pest Predators and Insectary Plants Climate change is bringing with it an associated change in pest pressures as they are moving into regions that were not previously suitable. Conventional farming often has high areas of monoculture, with no habitats for natural predators. When an infestation occurs, there is nothing to keep it in check…
Viticultural regions are familiar with vintage variation as a result of weather. However, in terms of climate change an increase in extremes and greater climate system instability is resulting in both occurrence of ‘extreme’ years and degree of variation beyond those growers are familiar with. Regenerative viticulture techniques include: Diversifying/decreasing monoculture By having more than…
Some wine regions are familiar with hail and the damage it can do to vines and grapes. Conventional hail risk reduction approaches include the use of hail nets, hail cannons, cloud seeding and spreading risk through geographically diverse vineyard parcels. However, climate change is expected to result in larger and more devastating hail storms. Techniques…
