The Future of Grapevine Disease Management
February 3, 2026 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR
Gain a clear, practical update on the latest advances from Cornell Grape Pathology—including double-stranded RNA.” , next-generation biologicals, disease-resistant varieties, phenology-based scheduling, dynamic spray volume technologies, emerging AI decision support, and improved adjuvant-based spray formulations—and learn how to evaluate these innovations against the enduring fundamentals of pathogen biology and sound viticultural practice. Using powdery mildew, downy mildew, and black rot as case studies, participants will connect pathogen life cycles to product selection and application timing, discover where current research indicates new tools can address persistent challenges, and leave equipped with informed questions to ask before adopting new products or management approaches.
