THE INTENSIVE PRODUCTION SISTEM OF TABLE GRAPES ON THE PERGOLA SISTEM vs THE TRADITIONAL TRELLIS SISTEM

Natalia Mocanu, Andrei Botezatu

Abstract


In the Republic of Moldova, viticulture holds significant economic importance, and methods of producing table grapes have evolved and diversified over time. A crucial aspect of this evolution is the implementation of intensive production systems like the pergola system, as opposed to traditional methods such as the standard espalier system. Intensive table grape production using the pergola system has gained popularity due to its efficiency in space utilization, optimization of yield, and ability to produce superior quality grapes. Compared to the standard espalier system, which involves vertical vine growth, the pergola system offers better sun exposure, improving the quantity and quality of fruit. This paper focuses on comparing the intensive table grape production system using the pergola system to the standard espalier system in the Republic of Moldova. We will explore the benefits and challenges associated with each system, the impact on yield and the quality of the harvest.
