SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE IN THE VINEYARD

Sustainable contrast of moth

1. Lobesia botrana in our areas is the most harmful insect for wine production. Last week pheromone diffusers were placed for the so-called sexual confusion, the aim of which is to make the moth populations lack more and more individuals, hindering their mating. Generation after generation, season after season, the high pressure of the insect populations should return to acceptable levels and thus avoiding a good number of phytosanitary treatments for the contrast.
