58 practical winery & vineyard February 2015 G R A P E G R O W I N G may be of significant benefit to provide additional edu- cation, instruction or even financial incentives to assure appropriate-diameter canes are being selected. An alternative to cane selec- tion by diameter is to modify the number of nodes retained per cane, as recommended for Sultana vines. 1 There are, however, likely to be spatial limitations. The methods used in this study could be easily incorporated into a vineyard management sched- ule, allowing for increased control of yield.
