B.C. growers shouldFOCUS ON CLONES

摘要

British Columbia growers may have the basic information about soil and climate when it comes to developing vineyards, but greater attention is needed to matching varieties with location, and then finding the specific clones of the variety that will perform best, according to a noted specialist in soil science and plant nutrition. "I think they have to figure out the varieties. They don't have any information about clones," said Dr. Daniel Roberts, principal of Integrated Winegrowing LLC in Sebastopol, California.
