The semi-desert climatic conditions and the absence of phylloxera allow us to limit preventive phytosanitary treatments as much as possible.
Our current standards are already very close to the French AB qualification and we have decided to continue this transition in the next 3 years.
The main diseases to be controlled are downy mildew and oidium.
We use products adapted for vines with low deficiency duration, changing the active ingredients in order to avoid resistance. We also work with calibrated machines with low volumes of water per hectare in order to avoid spreading the products on the soil.
