Come affrontano i vigneti di Sicilia la torrida estate 2015? Ricordando che quella che al Nord è una benedizione (una “bella” estate calda) in Trinacria si trasforma in una maledizione, guardate questo bel video sull’irrigazione di soccorso di Marilena Barbera:
Cantine Barbera vineyards are equipped with a drip irrigation system. In this system, water falls drop by drop just at the position of the vine’s roots, and it’s the most water-efficient method of irrigation, since evaporation and runoff are minimized.
In very hot summers irrigation is essential to preserve vines’ life, and to help them carrying their grapes until they are full ripe
