Research

My ongoing research activity, developed within the research projects listed below, focused on two main areas of interest. In detail:

Mountain viticulture: optimization of cultural inputs to enhance grape quality.

This research line is focused on the efficient use of cultural inputs to enhance grapevine performances and quality. More in detail these are the current research actions:

- Efficient use of water resources in vineyard. The activities are conducted within the projects “Effect of different water supply management on grapevine growth and quality performances” (2014-16) and “Water use efficiency across land use types in South Tyrol” (2016-2018). These activities are conducted with the group of Tree ecophysiology at unibz and in collaboration with other research institutions (the Research Centre Laimburg and the EURAC)

- Canopy management techniques to delay berry ripening in grapevine. This activity is conducted within the internally founded project “Pre-harvest techniques to control fruit ripening in Sauvignon Blanc grapevines” and in collaboration with the Research Centre Laimburg.

- Use of biochar as soil amendment in vineyard. Research activity conducted within the FESR project “Optimization of wood gasification chain in South Tyrol to produce bio-energy and other high-value green Products to enhance soil fertility and mitigate climate change (WOOD-UP) in collaboration with different research groups of the Faculty of Science and Technology, Laimburg ans IDM)

Use of biostimulants to enhance sustainability of fruit crops.

This research line deals with the experimental application of biostimulants (seaweed extracts, amino acids mix, vitamins, chitosan, mineral elements) which are able to affect primary and secondary metabolisms of the plant. The goal is to explore the potentially of these products to improve different aspects of fruit crop performances, such as growth, vigor, yield and overall fruit quality. The activities are conducted in collaboration with a private company (ILSA SpA), which in part support the project financially.
