The cultivation of wine grapes (Vinis Vinifera) requires a lot of craftsmanship, a lot of knowledge of cultivation and variety-specific needs. Unlike many food crops, the yield of wine grapes is inferior. After all, it's all about the quality of the wine. The specific quality of the grapes required for this can be influenced by various factors, including the pruning method, the use of crop protection and the availability and absorption of nutrients. With regard to nutrient supply, availability should not fluctuate too much to prevent an imbalance between growth and production. It is particularly interesting for wine grapes to provide part of the nutrition through foliar nutrition.
The products below are options for use in the cultivation of wine grapes. Discuss with your advisor what is the best application for you.
