The first edition of Understanding Vineyard Soils, published in
2009, has been praised for its comprehensive coverage of soil
topics relevant to viticulture, and is a major resource for
professionals in the industry. However, the subject is not
static-new developments are occurring in the field all the time.
For example, the 'organic movement' in viticulture continues to
grow in importance and the emphasis on wine quality relevant to
quantity is changing in an increasingly competitive world market.
The promotion of organic and biodynamic practices has raised a
general awareness about 'soil health' and methods to assess it,
which is often associated primarily with the biological status of
the soil. Many commercial laboratories offer an extensive range of
tests for soil (biological) health, the relevance of which is not
clear to many growers. However, the development of new tools for
characterizing soil microorganisms and identifying the specific
functions of taxonomic groups is an exciting area of research that
may offer answers to some of these questions in the future. This
second edition of White's influential book presents the latest
updates and developments in vineyard and soil management practices.
Just like the first edition, Understanding Vineyard Soils
introduces readers from all backgrounds to the principles of
viticulture.
