An NDVI aerial view maps and analyzes the vineyard from “above” the canopy. Thus, it provides information on leaf biomass. By contrast, a Physiocap® view analyzes the vineyard from “underneath” the canopy and maps the distribution of wood mass in your vineyard. Performed before budbreak, Physiocap® measurement informs on the […]
Fruition Sciences will provide you the Dyostem® results directly on 360viti, our vineyard intelligence platform. Results will be presented in two ways. One sugar loading curve per sampled blocks. Measurements will start at veraison. The sampling frequency should be once a week for red varietals and twice for whites. A minimum of 4 […]
Fruition Sciences has partnered in the US with Vivelys and ETS Laboratories to provide an original sugar loading analysis based on Dyostem® readings. Dyostem® is a tool revealing berry sugar accumulation profile. It is manufactured by Vivelys and is available for purchase in the US. Dyostem® is also available through ETS […]
Why tracking sugar loading is important? Sugar accumulation rate (as you can see in Figure 1) indicates how the plant is faring during ripening. It is directly related to plant photosynthetic activity, the balance between leaf area and amount of fruit and the vine physiological condition. As such, tracking and assessing […]
