Viticulture

Viticulture is the science behind the cultivation of the grapevine, a plant belonging to the Vitaceae family, for the production of grapes for wine, juice and table grapes. Viticulture requires a number of specific agronomic practices that allow, combined, to obtain quality grapes and maximize plant yield. At Unmaco you can find all the products to support the vine in thriving growth and producing quality grapes.

Choosing the right products for vine cultivation, especially those of organic origin, is critical to ensure plant health, grape and the final product quality. Organic products reduce environmental impact and promote an ecological balance of the entire area, preserving biodiversity and human health.

At Unmaco, we provide a wide range of products for vine care and cultivation, including:
● specific organic fertilizers with root biostimulant, which stimulate root activity and improve nutrient uptake. They may contain amino acid extracts, vitamins or other natural compounds. The application of root biostimulants promotes the development of the root system of vines, increasing their ability to absorb nutrients in the soil and protecting them during stress;
● planting soil, a professional growing medium with sphagnum peat, black peat, fiber and coconut chips with composted bark, used to improve the water retention of the soil in which vines are planted. Enrichment with organic fertilizer and root stimulant allows the vine to be given constant nutrition but also activates the soil’s biological flora and stimulates rooting. Specific planting soils can also be used for planting vine shoots so that they recover quickly from transplanting and support their growth;
● organic soil conditioner, to improve soil fertility and plant health. By using numerous organic viticulture raw materials with different nitrogen release, soil conditioner can provide various benefits to the soil and stable nutrition over time. The inclusion of an homologated root stimulant allows for growing and healthy plants even in stressful situations;
● biostimulants and mycorrhizae, to improve plant and soil growth, development, and health. Their use stimulates the vine’s natural defenses, root development and production, for fully organic management and a quality bottled product;
● useful insects, distributed on the plants at the right times of the year allow natural control of the most troublesome vine pathogens such as the red spider moth, moths and aphids.
