Agroecological potential of the table grapes Moldova depending on calcium treatments

Abstract

The cultivation of table grapes respecting the principles of organic agriculture and minimizing environmental impact can bring significant ecological and social benefits, contributing to rural development and promoting responsible agricultural practices. For the production of quality table grapes, specific growth conditions and technology must be ensured, the quantity and quality of the harvest being directly influenced by the climate, the vineyard exposure, the variety and the agricultural technique used. Studying the problems related to the quality formation of table grapes under different ecological cultivation conditions, it was found that the variety behaves differently in the growing process, a fact that influences the formation of structural elements. The purpose of the research presented in this article is to study the agroecological potential of the Moldova table grape variety, under the conditions of the Codru wine region, depending on the calcium treatments applied during the growing season. The following was determined from the research: 1. Calcium treatments did not directly influence the agro-ecological indices of the vine, and were manifested indirectly. 2. Calcium treatments directly influence the physiological indices, especially the variants with a higher number of treatments recorded maximum values of the chlorophyll content index, berries firmness, etc. 3. A different level of significance was established between the studied variants.
