Enhancing grape traceability from grower to consumer through GS1 Standards: A case study of the Australian table grape industry

Abstract

The traceability of agricultural products, including grapes, is essential for ensuring food safety, quality control, and supply chain transparency. This article investigates the use of GS1 standards to enhance grape traceability from grower to consumer. Through a case study approach, we examine how Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs), Global Location Numbers (GLNs), and Serial Shipping Container Codes (SSCCs) were integrated into grape production and distribution processes to harmonize domestic and export supply chains and prepare for global regulatory requirements.

Potenziare la tracciabilità dell’uva dal produttore al consumatore attraverso gli standard GS1

La tracciabilità dei prodotti agricoli, compresi gli acini d’uva, è essenziale per garantire la sicurezza alimentare, il controllo della qualità e la trasparenza della catena di approvvigionamento. Questo articolo indaga sull’implementazione degli standard GS1 per migliorare la tracciabilità dell’uva dal produttore al consumatore. Utilizzando un approccio basato su studi di caso, esaminiamo l’integrazione degli identificatori GS1, come i numeri globali di articolo commerciale (GTIN), i numeri globali di localizzazione (GLN) e i codici di contenitore di spedizione sequenziale (sscc), nei processi di produzione e distribuzione dell’uva. Gli standard GS1 sono stati integrati nei dati sui frutti e sulla catena di approvvigionamento per armonizzare le catene di approvvigionamento nazionali ed estere, e per preparare l’industria dell’uva da tavola alle future esigenze regolamentari globali sulla tracciabilità.

Enhancing vineyard resilience: three years of weather-based disease modeling in Moldova’s precision viticulture

Due to ongoing climate change, managing vineyard diseases has become increasingly challenging in the Republic of Moldova.

Evaluation of sap flow and trunk diameter measurements in grapevines using time series decomposition

Grapevines are very sensitive to weather conditions. Excessively hot and dry periods trigger the activation of survival mechanisms, such as reduction of crop transpiration and the redistribution of water. Monitoring these mechanisms is, therefore, essential to better understand the grapevine water dynamics and maximize water-use efficiency.

Plastic cover film on table grapes from field to cold storage

Plastic film covering is a technique largely used in viticulture to protect table grapes vines from adverse weather conditions and to reduce the negative effects of grapevine fungi disease. Plastic film composition affects solar radiation income inside the covering with effects on sunlight wavelengths in relation to different absorbance and reflectance. The interaction of selected light ranges with vines could influence grape ripening and yield and consequently influence shelf life.

SAVOIR: A project promoting innovative and effective prophylactic methods in viticulture, as part of the governmental plan to anticipate the withdrawal of plant protection products in France (PARSADA)

Faced with the likely withdrawal of commercial specialities from use in the short to medium term, France has decided to implement an ambitious action plan to anticipate and avoid withdrawal without alternative solutions. The French wine industry (cniv and ifv) has been heavily involved in this action to define priorities. faced with the risk of the withdrawal of multi-site fungicides (folpel, dithianon, copper) coupled with the probable reduction in single-site fungicide solutions, mildew and black rot have been identified as the priority uses.

Biological control of the vineyard: new microbiological findings from CREA-VE

According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), 75.866 km2 of the world is dedicated to grape cultivation. About 71.0% of the world’s grape production is destined for winemaking, 27.0% for consumption as fresh fruit and 2.0% as raisin. Grape production is mainly hindered by fungal infections, that can develop both in field and post-harvest.
