Vine training systems utilize the practice of trellising and pruning in order to dictate and control a grape vine's canopy which will influence the potential yield of that year's crop as well as the quality of the grapes due to the access of air and sunlight needed for the grapes to ripen fully and for preventing various grape diseases.
Bush training Vine training system where the vines are kept as individual, free-standing vines not supported by or joined together by a trellising system. Also known as Goblet training. Common training system in the Rhone Valley and in parts of California with old vine Zinfandel. Buttage
The vine is the main part of the grapevine, extending from the root system in the ground up to the cordons, or arms, of the vine. When the grape is young the trunk is very pliable and must be supported by stakes as part of a vine training system.
This system allows the reduction of labor as the plant will grow upward without the need of manual tutoring just by leaning on the mesh. It is advisable to install two walls of trellising net in tomatoes, peppers, chilis or eggplant since the branches of solanaceae need somewhere to lean on in order to grow fully and sustain a full load of fruit.
Vineyard Models simulate microclimate, vine growth, grape ripening, and economic return on investment to evaluate management options. Decision Support Systems (DSS) bring together vineyard environmental and economic databases, vineyard models, and GIS in an interactive software-based system to solve management problems and better make decisions.
Other parts of the vine include the tendrils which are leaf-opposed, branched in Vitis vinifera, and are used to support the climbing plant by twining onto surrounding structures such as branches or the trellising of a vine-training system.
