Testing the crop for ripeness is essential so that the fruit is harvested at its optimum level.

 

Pest and disease monitoring

Soil moisture monitoring
This area goes hand in hand with irrigation schedules.

Weed control
A continuation of the herbicide program is essential so that no competition occurs with growing/ripening vines.
