Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Termination at vine budburst increased service crop biomass two to three fold relative to early destruction.
- Intervention effect Early soil tillage termination left almost no service crop regrowth.
- Intervention effect Soil tillage gave the lowest weed biomass at grapevine flowering in two of three years.
- Intervention effect Tillage prevented regrowth of certain sown plants, especially Poaceae.
- Intervention effect Rolling was less effective at destroying service crop species.
- Intervention effect Rolling best maintained plant residues on the soil surface.
- Intervention effect Termination at budburst with no tillage increased soil microbial biomass.
- Intervention effect Tillage termination more effectively stopped service crop transpiration.
- Intervention effect Tillage increased soil water stocks.
- Intervention effect Tillage improved grapevine water status.
- Intervention effect Soil inorganic nitrogen stocks were almost four times higher under tillage in 2020 and 2022.
- Observation Grape juice YAN mirrored the higher nitrogen trend under tillage.
- Intervention effect Tillage treatments increased pruning weight relative to roller and mower methods.
- Intervention effect Tillage gave a significantly higher bunch count than the other methods.
- Intervention effect Roller treatment gave an intermediate bunch count.
- Observation Average grapevine yield ranged from 7.25 to 13.7 t ha−1.
- Observation The reported grapevine yield corresponded to 52–98 hL ha−1.
- Recommendation Tillage termination appears least risky for preserving grapevine vigor and production in Mediterranean conditions.
