Description<\/h4>\n<\/div>

To remain competitive, Languedoc viticulture must adapt to the global market by producing wines that meet consumer expectations and ensuring consistent quality from one year to the next.This means effectively managing water stress, which is becoming increasingly difficult to do given current climate trends. It is also necessary to manage water resources at the scale of the terroirs and to set up appropriate supply networks because water is a limited resource.
\nThe DISP’EAU project has made it possible to develop an innovative decision support tool to continuously quantify water stress at the plant level and correlate it to the potential quality of the final product using a mechanistic model of the soil-vine-atmosphere continuum. This model was paired with an expert system and a diagnostic chart to correlate the water stress of the vine with the quality of the grapes. R&D work is still underway to best respond to climatic conditions linked to global warming. This work improves the quality of model prediction under extreme water stress conditions. Experiments are underway with customers, but also within experimental study plots.<\/p>\n<\/div>
