Wine-Grower-News #151 December 31, 2010 (Next Newsletter in 2 Weeks!) Wine-Grower-News #151 December 31, 2010 (Next newsletter in 2 weeks!) Midwest Grape & Wine Industry Institute: http://www.extension.iastate.edu/Wine Information in this issue includes: New Information on Herbicide Labels 2011 ICCVE Winter Pruning Workshop Dates Announced 1-15, Bubble Point Wine Filtration Test - Workshop ICCVE Advanced Vineyard Management course begins March 17, 2011 1-(28 & 29), Iowa Fruit & Vegetable Growers & Marketers Conference 3-8-11 - Fruit Brandy Distillation Workshop – Mt Grove, MO 2011 Ohio Grape & Wine Conference Missouri FB Written Policy Supports Missouri Grape & Wine Industry Comments from Readers Notable Quotables Show n Tell Videos of Interest Articles of Interest Neeto-Keeno WWW Stuff Calendar of Events New Information on Herbicide Labels By Bob Hartzler, Department of Agronomy, Iowa State University Extension Herbicide labels now include a standardized system to inform users of the product‟s mechanism of action (MOA). A box labeled „Herbicide Group‟ is present near the top of the label. The number in the box represents MOA of the active ingredient, based on a system developed by the Weed Science Society of America. Premixes containing more than one mode of action will have multiple numbers listed. Following is an example of the new logo. The intent of this information is to simplify development of herbicide programs that reduce the likelihood of selecting herbicide resistant weeds. In production systems relying largely on herbicides 1 for weed management, using herbicides with different MOAs is the primary means of managing resistance. Generally, the greater number of MOAs used, the less selection pressure placed on weeds. However, designing an integrated program is not as simple as randomly adding MOAs. The different MOAs used in the program must have good activity on the important weeds in the field to successfully reduce selection pressure. Following are a few examples where the inclusion of an herbicide in a system relying on glyphosate in Roundup Ready crops would provide little benefit in terms of managing resistance for specific weeds. • A Group 2 herbicide would provide little benefit for waterhemp since most waterhemp is resistant to these herbicides. • A Group 15 herbicide would provide little benefit for giant ragweed or other large-seeded broadleaves due to its poor activity on these weeds. • Tank-mixing low rates ( less than 0.75 lbs) of atrazine (Group 5) with glyphosate or other herbicides. The new labeling system eliminates the need for farmers, consultants and suppliers to learn the MOA of all the active ingredients used in Iowa agriculture. However, to use the information properly, users must still know the activity of the individual herbicides on the weeds present in the field to insure that the target weeds are being affected by multiple MOAs. 2 Use this link to reach the Weed Science Society of America Mechanism of Action document.

Delegates of the Farm Bureau, representing the nearly 112,000 Farm Bureau members across the state, voted to include the following language in their 2011 Policy Book: - We support the continued development of a strong grape and wine industry in the state of Missouri and recognize the need for continued promotion. - We support allowing wineries to sell wine on premises and deliver and ship wine directly to retail stores and restaurants. - We oppose any legislation limiting wineries ability to market their product to buyers of legal age. - We support increased state and federal funding for grape and enology research. The Policy Book helps guide what the Missouri Farm Bureau will support and, in turn, lobby for in Jefferson City. --- Source: January 2011 Inside Missouri Wine newsletter Comments from Readers Mike, Was doing some family genealogy and found this small article in the paper dated May of 1894, Franklin Iowa. “The prospects for a heavy grape harvest is good and if nothing happens it more wine will be made this fall than ever, in spite of the mulet law, and should any spy find it worth while to put any of the wine makers in trouble he had better make his will before hand---“ Sounds like they took their wine drinking seriously. John Lake Chalkridge Vineyard, Ft Madison, IA 12-21-10 5 FYI: After being elected into the Iowa House of Representatives in 1893, William B. Martin from Greenfield, Iowa devised the “mulet” law which voided the prior Iowa prohibition act of 1884 if and when a majority of the voters in towns and cities wanted saloons established within their jurisdiction. The Mulet law was repealed when Iowa enacted complete alcohol prohibition on January 1st of 1916. --- mlw Notable Quotables “A positive anything is better than a negative nothing” --- Sign in a locker room. “Studies have shown that the release of dissolved CO2 in the mouth is what's behind the pleasurable taste and feel of champagne. Thus, pouring a stream of wine down the side of the glass preserves more of the bubbles, so that they can tickle the palate as you drink.” --- from: How to pour that drink scientifically, 12-28-10 - Cosmic Log on MSNBC.com http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2010/12/28/5726948-how-to-pour-that-drink-scientifically Show Tell “Hi Mike, Thank you so much for sending these newsletters out, they are such a great resource for what's going on locally in the wine ag. industry! I just wanted to pass on some pictures and info for you. My husband, parents and I are in the planning stages of starting a winery and microbrewery in Logan, Iowa and we recently put in about 1/3 of our initial trellis before the weather turned too cold. My grandpa has an excavator that we used to drive the posts into the near-frozen ground, and the whole process was smooth! We did this the last weekend in November, right before the ground completely froze and it went a lot faster than we ever imagined.

Of course, I could not remember what kind of galls were on the leaf at the time she showed it to me. (Story of my life!) But,..I did remember on the way home that night. Grape Tube Gallmaker galls The grape leaf was covered with tube galls caused by the Grape Tube Gallmaker (Cedidomynia viticola). A gall fly known as a midge lays eggs on the grape leaf. The leaf then responds by producing pointed tube galls. The midge larva will then develop inside the gall. The grape tube gallmaker is an incidental pest and is not of economic importance. 1.
