July 16, Thursday — Proper training and care of a grapevine’s shoots, leaves and grape bunches play a critical role in maximizing the productivity of the vine and the quality of the grapes and wine. The industry-focused International Grapevine Canopy Management Symposium will feature scientists from France, Italy, Germany, Australia, Canada and the United States. They will present recent research findings and advances in canopy management practices in their respective countries. The symposium is planned as a tribute to UC Davis viticulture professor emeritus Mark Kliewer, who organized the first international canopy management symposium at UC Davis in 1986. The symposium will be held from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in UC Davis’ Freeborn Hall. More information and registration are available online at http://www.cevs.ucdavis.edu/confreg/index.cfm?confid=436.
