1 Effects of Plastic Covers on Canopy Microenvironment and Fruit Quality Matthew Fidelibus Viticulture & Enology UC Davis
2 Justification and importance Table grapes are costly to produce Late-harvested fruit need rain protection Various plastic films provide rain shelter, but they may allow heat and condensation to accumulate Characterizing performance of existing films will help guide and assess the development of new films

7 Objective Determine how green and white-colored plastic vine covers affect canopy microenvironment, and yield, quality, and post-harvest spoilage of table grapes.
8 Field study design and layout Green and white vine covers were purchased from commercial suppliers and installed by a commercial grower in Redglobe (2011) and Autumn King (2012) vineyards Whole rows of vines were covered with green or white plastic, or remained uncovered, in a randomized complete block design replicated three times. Covers were installed in September, and kept in place till harvest (November or October) Environmental and fruit quality data collected periodically
9 Properties of the plastics Reflectivity: Uncovered : 31% Green: 31% White: 53% Light transmission: Uncovered: N/A Green: 70 White: 41
10 Environmental Measurements in the canopy Temperature and relative humidity (RH*) Evaporative potential Condensation

23 Redglobe postharvest quality, 2011 Days in cold storage Covering Percent clusters with rot Visual appearance score uncovered green white Significance (P>F)
24 Summary of 2011 findings, Redglobe Green plastic more transparent & less reflective than white; increased peak canopy temps by 5 C Greatest condensation in morning and under vertical or north facing surfaces Both plastics reduced evaporative potential and slightly delayed fruit maturity Maybe some protection from postharvest rot?
25 South-facing fruit zone temperatures, AK, 2012
26 Top-center canopy temperatures
27 North-facing fruit zone temperatures
28 RH, South Fruiting Zone
29 RH, Top Center
30 RH, North Fruiting Zone
31 Fruit quality, Autumn King, 2012 No treatment effects on berry weight, Brix, ph, or TA No treatment effects on field assessment of rot After 1 month post harvest storage, fruit from uncovered vines had twice as much rot as fruit from covered vines, regardless of plastic color (40 vs 20% of clusters with some rot)
32 Overall summary Green plastic transmits more light than white, resulting in higher peak temperatures Condensation worst in the morning, under top & north-facing surfaces; variable differences between plastics Both plastics reduce evaporative potential in canopy but not fruit zone Both covers may slightly delay fruit maturation Covers appear to reduce post harvest rots
