Activities

After an initial climatic characterization of the Somontano wine region, a set of plots will be selected to implement the control nodes and sensors for data collection. These data will be the required inputs for the new models and will facilitate the obtaining of higher predicting precision. Together with historical data obtained from virtual nodes, the data will be integrated into a database in later campaigns.

During two campaigns, the vineyard plots will be monitored (phenology, quality, plant health status, etc.), protection treatments will be carried out and their impacts will be evaluated.

The information collected will be integrated into a specific software and will feed the powdery mildew and downy mildew prediction models.

New predictive models for these two fungal diseases will be developed, specifically parameterized for the Somontano wine region to later be integrated into a data consultation and management software.

Finally, validation tests will be carried out. Control plots will be monitored and the treatments will be better adjusted based on the results of the tests and having in account the real needs of each plot.


Activities

Tras una caracterización climática inicial de la comarca vitivinícola del Somontano se seleccionarán las parcelas para implantar los nodos de control y sensores para recogida de datos que alimenten los modelos y favorezcan la obtención de una mayor precisión. Estos datos, junto con los históricos procedentes de nodos virtuales, se integrarán en posteriores en una base de datos.

Durante dos campañas, se monitorizarán las parcelas de viñedo (fenología, calidad, estado sanitario, etc.) y se realizarán tratamientos y se evaluarán sus impactos.

La información que se recoja será integrada en una herramienta software específica y alimentará los modelos de predicción de oídio y mildiu.

Se desarrollarán los nuevos modelos predictivos para oídio y mildiu, específicamente parametrizados para la comarca vitivinícola de Somontano para posteriormente integrarse en una aplicación

software de consulta y gestión de datos.

Finalmente, se realizarán pruebas de validación en las que se hará un seguimiento de las parcelas testigo y se ajustarán los tratamientos de forma precisa en función de las necesidades reales de cada parcela.

1 Practice Abstracts

SOMID will develop an intelligent software solution, based on predictive models, capable of determining the risk of two of the most harmful fungal diseases in vineyard (powdery mildew and downy mildew). This new tool will help farmers to make reasoned and well-founded decisions to improve crop management, optimize the use of phytosanitary products. This will not only generate positive consequences for the environment, but will improve the competitiveness of winegrowers and wineries in the Somontano area.


SOMID desarrollará una solución software inteligente, basada en modelos predictivos, capaz de determinar el riesgo del viñedo de sufrir las dos enfermedades fúngicas más perjudiciales para este cultivo (oidio y mildiu) lo que posibilitará una toma de decisiones razonada y fundamentada que redundará en una reducción de la cantidad de producto fitosanitario utilizado y, por ende, tendrá consecuencias positivas en el medioambiente, y mejorará la competitividad de viticultores y bodegas de la zona de Somontano.
