MyEV Tool- Take Your Vineyard Management to the Next Level-Now a ZOOM meeting!

November 16 - November 30, 2021


Watch the recording from the first event so you can be all caught up to attend the Nov 30 event!

Take Your Vineyard Management to the Next Level with Precision Viticulture 

Lake Erie vineyards have a lot of natural variation in soil type, vine growth, and crop yield, which impacts overall productivity and farm profitability. Precision Viticulture is the process of measuring, modeling, and managing vineyard variation on a sub-block level to improve production efficiency. 

Getting started with precision viticulture can seem overwhelming with the need to purchase and learn new technology, such as vineyard sensors, GIS software, and variable-rate controllers.  To address this challenge, Terry Bates (CLEREL) and Nick Gunner (Orbitist) developed an easy-to-use and web-based software platform for growers to benefit from spatial information on their own farms.  The MyEfficientVineyard (MyEV) tool allows growers to collect, process, and map spatial observations in any of their vineyard blocks.  There is an old saying that "the best fertilizer is the grower's footprints in the vineyard." MyEV now allows you to trace those footprints and spatially map what you observed so you can make the best management decisions for your vineyard blocks.

 Sign up and learn the basics of MyEV!

November 30, 2021

VineBalance 2022: Climate Resiliency

December 7, 2021
4:00-5:30PM


Climate resiliency involves a set of practices and capacities that are known to help withstand climate change at the farm level through carbon sequestration, adaptation, and risk mitigation. It is important for growers to understand the science of climate change and build resiliency measures into their environmental, social, and economic management strategies.

VineBalance 2022: Social Equity

December 14, 2021
4:00-5:30PM


Social equity addresses the "people" component of the so-called Three P's of Sustainability: people, planet, and prosperity. This can be achieved through thoughtful human resource management, employee benefits, and worker health and safety measures.
