UEAV

The UEAV is involved in the creation of new disease-resistant vine varieties and the agro-environmental evaluation of innovative agricultural practices.

• Multiplication and maintenance of plant genetic resources (mainly vines)
• Carrying out measurements and sampling in the field and environmental characterisation (phenotyping, sampling of plants, soil and leaching water, etc.).
• Carrying out experimental vinifications
• Maintenance and design of experimental equipment, adaptation of farm machinery to the needs of the experiment
• Agronomic expertise (returning organic waste products to the soil, reducing inputs, etc.).

The experimental estate has around 12 ha of vineyards, 50 ha of farmland, 2,200 m2 of greenhouses, a vinification cellar and 2 sample libraries.
