Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of constantly high soil water content, which was controlled at constantly more than 20% water content in soil, on vegetative growth and berry quality of wine grapes over a three-year growing season. A wireless sensor networking system for real-time monitoring of soil moisture was used to check that the experimental plot had constantly more than 20% water content in soil. Véraison in the experimental plot controlled at constantly high soil water content started later than that in the non-irrigated experimental plot. There was a certain tendency that constantly high soil water content decreased anthocyanin contents in berry skins compared with those of non-irrigated grapevines during the three growing seasons. The introduction of ICT technology for monitoring environmental status in fields is expected to contribute to improving practical approaches in Horticultural crops.
