This article is written as a summary of a presentation that took place in Tomelloso on May 20, 2021 within the Wine Technical Conference, organized by Cooperatives Agro-alimentary de Castilla-La Mancha. The conference was titled “Castilla La Mancha towards a competitive and sustainable viticulture”.
It began by giving a brief review of already known concepts about the interactions between performance and quality: Everyone knows that performance cannot be increased indefinitely without a detriment to quality. This principle, already known to all winegrowers, was made clear from the publications on conduction systems that have taken place in the last 30 years approximately (Amorós et al., 2003). Balancing the exposed foliar surface of the vine conduction system with the production of this is essential to obtain quality products.
All this has given rise to a great development of the study of the conduction systems that must necessarily be embedded in the plantation projects (planting frame, orientation of the rows, “canopy” supports, dry and green pruning, fertilization, irrigation, sanitary defense, etc …) that are made to obtain quality products within current viticulture.
