Deep incorporation of organic amendments into soils of a 'Calardis Musque' vineyard: effects on greenhouse gas emissions, vine vigor, and grape quality.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Traditional wine growing regions are increasingly endangered by climatic alterations. One promising approach to mitigate advancing climate change could be an increase of soil organic matter. Here, especially subsoils are of interest as they provide higher carbon storage potential than topsoils. In this context, vineyard subsoils could be particularly suitable since they are deeply cultivated once before planting and afterwards, left at rest for several decades due to the perennial nature of grapevines.

Methods

For this purpose, a biochar compost substrate and greenwaste compost were incorporated in up to 0.6 m depth before planting a new experimental vineyard with the fungus-resistant grapevine cultivar 'Calardis Musqué'. The influence of this deep incorporation o
