Abstract:Bolivian viticulture is mostly found in the Central Valley of Tarija, which is characterised by a subtropical climate with high thermal oscillation in winter that results in low accumulation of chilling units. Such climatic conditions accentuate acrotony in vines, which affect budburst uniformity and, consequently, yield and bunch quality at harvest. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different spur pruning strategies on the percentage of budburst and fertility of buds located in different nod… Show more
