Grass cover in the vineyard consists of establishing, maintaining and managing a plant cover on all or part of the surface of the vineyard plots. Other alternatives exist, such as weeding mechanically, and require revising the management strategies of the vine row.
Objectives
- Learn to plan and manage the implementation of a grass cover adapted to your plot.
- Learn to manage cover crops and understand the ecosystem services they provide.
- Understand the principles of mechanical weeding
