May 19 - Cornell Virtual Viticulture and Enology Extension Meeting

Cornell Viticulture and Enology Extension programs invite growers and winemakers to several online informational sessions on vineyard and winery topics.  We are pooling resources to make informal field meetings held by each program into virtual meetings direct to your cell phone or computer via the internet and zoom. 

Each meeting will feature a management topic with faculty and extension panelists making informal presentations followed by a question and answer session.  We intend this to be a conversation, and will address questions submitted in advance, or ‘live’ through the zoom chat bar or directly through the phone or computer app as possible.  

These meetings will bring in speakers for informal discussions of various topics, as well as addressing current questions and topics from growers and winemakers as the season progresses.  Pre-registration is required, but you will only need to register once to attend all sessions.

Please Note: If you are seeking pesticide re-certification credits for NYS, then you need to connect via Zoom app or Zoom software with video and pre-register.

Recent research by Justine Vanden Heuvel and Miriam Berdeja with a number of mycorrhyzae products has shown some promising results, both in the laboratory and field applications, including improved uptake of nutrients and measurable effects on root growth and N uptake.  Join us for a discussion of research results, ‘rates and dates’ for application and future research.

Next Meeting: Tuesday, May 26th - What if I can't sell all of my grapes?  Tools for evaluating the impact of COVID-19 market disruptions on MY vineyards.
