Summary: The choice of rootstock and spacing greatly influence the productivity and quality characteristics of the Sangiovese vineyard. The 101-14 Mgt rootstock showed early sprouting and longer maturation cycle, while IAC 572 provided greater vigor to the canopy but decreased productivity. The VR 043-43 rootstock had the highest total acidity. Overall, IAC 572, Paulsen 1103, and VR 043-43 rootstocks delayed sprouting, closer plant spacing increased vineyard productivity, 101-14 Mgt, Harmony, and Paulsen 1103 rootstocks had higher soluble solids content, and 101-14 Mgt and Harmony rootstocks increased anthocyanin content.

Summary: The wine industry is gaining worldwide relevance, and the sustainability of the business activity is becoming a major challenge. Due to the significant impact of agricultural processes on the environment, applying new technologies and processes to improve sustainability and product quality in vine and wine production is crucial. This paper analyzes academic literature to determine the contributions, key authors, universities, and countries in the field of wine industry sustainability. The findings show increased research in this area by leading researchers, mainly from universities in wine-producing regions, with collaboration and innovation playing significant roles in improving the sector's sustainability.

Summary: The spatial patterns of grapevines' vigor were assessed using different vegetation indices, and the most sensitive index was determined to monitor the vineyards during a specific growth stage. The study found that NDRE was more sensitive than NDVI in detecting vigor variability in high-density vegetation. The agreement between the two indices depended on the vineyard, growth stage, and growing season.

Summary: Monitoring vine water status is essential for vineyard management, with new technologies like the ApeX-Vigne mobile app providing a cost-effective solution for characterizing water stress and spatial structures at different scales. Results from the application's use in a large wine-producing region in southern France demonstrate its potential for water resource management and specific vineyard-related applications, opening up new avenues for research in combining spatial data sources.

Summary: The study aimed to understand the pedogeochemical signature of five rare earth elements in vineyard soils in Campo de Calatrava. Results showed that the distribution of REEs in soils is related to parent material and soil formation processes, with concentrations of Ce, Nd, Y, and Sc higher in volcanic soils. In some cases, the use of REE-based fertilizers may have a specific human impact on soil chemistry.

Summary: The study found that in semi-arid regions, using organic mulch and no-tillage can improve vine water status and reduce grape phenolic composition. There are interactive effects between water regime and soil management on water use efficiency, with irrigation increasing yield and pruning weight. However, longer-term studies are needed to assess the sustainability of combining both practices considering soil compaction and water infiltration rate.

Summary: Climate change has had various repercussions on Australian viticulture, including compressed vintages, high alcohol levels, and low wine acidity. These changes, along with challenges like storms, drought, and excessive heat, have negatively impacted vine productivity and altered fruit characteristics. To address these challenges, alternative cultivars, changing geographic locations, and various management strategies such as modifying irrigation regimes and vineyard practices can be employed.

Summary: The quality of grapevine berries for winemaking is influenced by the complex and dynamic relationships between the plant and the environment. Climate change is expected to result in shifts in the most suitable areas for grape cultivation, with high altitude regions becoming more favorable. This review summarizes the environmental impact of high altitude-related climatic variables on grapevine physiology and wine composition.

Summary: Drosophila suzukii is an invasive species that feeds on various fruits and moves between agricultural and semi-natural habitats. Predation of D. suzukii pupae in hedges was found to be around 44%, mainly by earwigs, spiders, and ants. While only a small proportion of predators were detected to have fed on D. suzukii, overall predation rates were sufficient to reduce D. suzukii populations in hedges with limited host fruit resources.

Summary: Drosophila suzukii infestations in vineyards can be effectively assessed using the 'whole cluster method' developed in this study, which collects and inspects berries from the interior of grape clusters. This method was found to be more sensitive and identified eggs earlier and in more samples compared to two established sampling methods.
