Technical Manual on "C stocking in vineyards - recommended practices"- English version

The activities of WP2 - C Farming data collection aim to provide a comprehensive review of vineyard management practices to maximise soil organic carbon (SOC) storage capacity for sustainable vineyard management. Initially, a literature review was carried out with the aim of creating an inventory of best practices for "carbon stocking" by collecting information fromprevious and ongoing projects, technical reports and scientific articles and organising it into a database (D.1.1).This document provides a handbook of best practices for carbon stocking in viticulture. The handbook is divided into three sections based on the similarity of carbon storage practices; within each section there are a number of fact sheets outlining each storage practice, agri-environmental and economic advantages and disadvantages.
