Presentation

This lecture explores the key factors that determine how soil and plants manage water under increasingly variable climatic conditions. It covers organic matter management, root‑zone activation, and physical‑chemical soil corrections that improve water‑holding capacity and infiltration. Attention is also given to technological adjuvants—from soil conditioners to plant‑supporting formulations that enhance metabolism and hydration.

Participants will see practical setup examples, including timing, dosage, and effective combinations suited to different soil types and vineyard conditions. Real‑world vineyard cases illustrate how improved water management affects vine growth dynamics, grape quality, and drought resilience. The session also includes calculation principles and hands‑on guidelines applicable directly in growers’ everyday practice.
