meeting for the project by running VINES He ATLANTIC

technicians Diputación And wineries Martin Codax, Earl of Albarea and Rosalía de Castro to hold a meeting for the project in motion VINE ATLANTIC

President of the Diputación de Pontevedra, Rafael washer, this morning attended a committee meeting project management Vineyards Atlantic ("Atlantic Life Vineyard") as set out the technical solution adopted to put this into practice environmental management plan of the vineyards. At the meeting attended by the presidents and managers of wineries Martin Codax, Condes de Albarea and Rosalía de Castro and several technicians from the state entity.
The main objective of the project Vineyards Atlantic is limiting the use of pesticides on video, which has an environmental control system based on a network that sends sensory information in real time the status of the strains.
This plan falls within the European Union Life Programme, dedicated to environmental issues. The investment in this case reaches 1 million euros, of which the EU finances 50%, the Diputación, 30% and 20% remaining in charge of run cooperatives.
information in real time, 18 sub-areas of beverages The project
Vineyards Atlantic allows obtaining information in real time the status of pathogens that affect the vineyards. This information will be used for decision-making by growers as to the application of chemical treatments, which implies a significant reduction of losses and an improvement in environmental sustainability.

The scope of operation of the plan, initially disporase in 18 areas of sub-area of \u200b\u200bdrinks, which concentrates most of the wine production of the DO Rias Baixas. "This way we give service to more than 1,500 families associated with different cooperatives, but also to small growers," said washer, adding that " the intention is to reach every sector of the Vinho Verde, and why not, the other designations of origin and even to other regions of Spain. " Predict that the runtimes are agile project, so that said washer "before the end of this year should be all ready to go."

A wide sensor network consists of 72 nodes
The technology infrastructure that will allow implementation of this sensory sistena is a network consisting of 72 nodes or sensors installed in the vineyards that convey a central node (via the internet connection Network Diputación de Pontevedra Repoblar of) information on moisture, temperature and activity of vine leaves at the time of measurement. The information submitted will be of public character to the wine growers can consult. As for the power of different nodes, these abasteceranse, where it is possible, through solar power.

immediate information on the web via email or sms

The data will reach the growers in three ways: via sms to phone, email or by consulting the web page. The computer application developed for this purpose is intuitive and manageable so that interested parties can access information in a simple manner.
"With these actions," explained China, "we demonstrate that by using a limited amount of chemicals, it is possible to obtain a higher production in quantity and quality, and in addition there is a positive measure in terms of economic savings and environmental care."
