| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Not only is Aomori famous for apple production, but also for grape production in Japan, especially 70% of a type of grapes called Steuben is produced domestically. Many vineyards in this area have been converted from paddies and those tend to have bad drainage. In this study, we aimed to clarify the causes of the bad drainage by field monitoring and create useful countermeasures.
As a result, we found the following: 1) Deep water management of paddies between July and August around the vineyard used for our research made a significant impact on the drainage; 2) During this period, groundwater rose near the surface, which made soil water excessive at the upstream of the vineyard. Consequently, grapes were stressed by this condition, which tended to cause growth defect; 3) Collaborating with the farmer who used our data collected by utilizing ICT, we found a countermeasure which could easily be installed in the vineyard.
