    Matching Grape Varieties to Sites Are hybrid varieties right for Oklahoma? Bruce Bordelon Purdue University Wine Grape Team 2014 Oklahoma Grape Growers Workshop 2006 survey of grape varieties in Oklahoma: Vinifera 80%. Hybrids 15% American 7% Muscadines 1% Profiles and Challenges…continued… • V. vinifera cultivars are the most widely grown in Oklahoma…; however, observation and research has shown most European cultivars to be highly susceptible to cold damage. • More research needs to be conducted to elicit where European cultivars will do best in Oklahoma. • French-American hybrids are good alternatives due to their better cold tolerance, but have not been embraced by Oklahoma grape growers... Reasons for this bias likely include hybrid cultivars being perceived as lower quality than European cultivars, lack of knowledge of available hybrid cultivars, personal preference, and misinformation. Profiles and Challenges…continued… • The unpredictable continental climate of Oklahoma is one of the foremost obstacles for potential grape growers. • It is essential that appropriate site selection be done prior to planting. • Many locations in Oklahoma are unsuitable for most grapes, including hybrids and American grapes. • Growing grapes in Oklahoma is a risky endeavor and minimization of potential loss by consideration of cultivar and environmental interactions is paramount to ensure long-term success. • There are areas where some European cultivars may succeed. • Many hybrid and American grapes are better suited for most areas of Oklahoma than

  • Grape Cultivar by Management System Trial Performance in 2006
    Grape Cultivar by Management System Trial Performance in 2006 Grape Cultivar by Management System Trial Performance in 2006 Paul Domoto, professor Gail Nonnecke, professor Dennis Portz, graduate student Department of Horticulture Bernie Havlovic, farm superintendent Introduction To identify grape cultivars adapted to Iowa, a cultivar by management system trial was established in 2002 at the ISU Horticulture Research Station (HRS) and the ISU Armstrong Research Farm (ARP) with the help of a grant from the Leopold Center of Sustainable Agriculture. Fifteen cultivars, including 10 wine and 5 seedless table cultivars, are being evaluated under 1) a conventional management system that relies on herbicides for weed control and application of insecticides and fungicides on a regular basis; 2) an IPM/best management system that uses herbicides as needed and relies on monitoring to determine the need for insecticides and fungicides; and 3) an organic approved system that relies on a straw mulch for weed control and use of organic- approved pest control strategies. This report summarizes the results for the 2006 growing season. Materials and Methods The vines were spaced 8xlO ft apart (545 vines/A) with three vines/replication. Treatments were replicated five times at HRS and three times at ARF. The vines were trained to the bilateral cordon system on a two- wire trellis with wires at 3.5 ft and 6.0 ft above the ground. Vines with a procumbent (trailing) growth habit were trained to the top wire, while those with a semi-upright to upright growth habit were trained to the vertical shoot positioning (VSP) system.
