Vineyard Safe: the review of Antonio Picoco, winemaker in Puglia

From waste to targeted treatment

In past years many treatments were performed as soon as the first signs of problem appeared. Today, thanks to the alerts and data provided by Safe vineyard, action is taken only when it is really necessary, eliminating unnecessary action.

Concrete economic savings

This different mode of operation results in significant money savings: fewer products purchased and fewer interventions to be performed (even when working with contractors).

Environmental benefits

However, the plant protection products used end up in the environment. Reducing its use is not only an economic but also an environmental benefit: fewer substances entering the soil and the atmosphere means less impact and more sustainable management of the vineyard.

Practical conclusion

For Antonio, these aspects have led to a positive opinion on the solution: less waste, economic savings and a real improvement from an environmental point of view.

Full Testimony

A waste: in the past years, as soon as you saw the first problems you went to treat. This is no longer the case today. You get a considerable saving of money.

The key thing is that all these products we use end up in the environment. Hence, from an environmental point of view, there has been a clear improvement: instead of putting in so many products, action is taken only when there is a real need. There are several fundamental aspects that have led me to think positively on my part for this solution.
