Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the most pressing challenges facing agriculture today is climate change. To face these challenges, we need to apply the latest technologies in viticultural research. Information technology will play a key role in future research efforts, both in the application of precision technologies and in data processing and modeling. The yield and quality of grapevine are highly influenced by environmental factors, such as the climate, topography, and soil, and biotic factors, including rootstock, pests, and diseases, all of which can affect grapevine either positively or negatively. Cultivation practices, nutrient supply, spraying, and irrigation can also influence the yield and quality of this plant; the effectiveness of these methods must thus be evaluated.
This Special Issue of Agronomy will focus on innovative research methods for phenotyping, biomass evaluation, precision viticulture, remote sensing, image analysis, the evaluation of the nutrient status, drone technology, grapevine robotics, analysis of berry composition, diagnosis, and the evaluation of the effect of pests and diseases on plant development

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Agronomy is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
