As from today we have added some extra functionality to Integrape. Although this may not be important for all vineyards, it will certainly help the vineyards with a large number of blocks.In most vineyards we only test some monitor blocks (soil/petiole etc) rather than each block separately. Often we may test different blocks from year to year. This makes it more difficult to look for trends over time. It also makes it more difficult for day to day management.To solve some of these issues we have introduced zones. A zone is a group of blocks with similar characteristics. It could be grouping blocks based on the variety grown there, or represent blocks on the same soil type. Typically they get the same fertiliser.
Screenshot 1 –showing one of the individual Pinot Gris blocks in Block View When in Integrape, you can choose the zone view (instead of the block view). The zone view is based on all data from the blocks in that zone which are then averaged per report. You wills till have the individual block data, simply switching back to block views will get you the actual results for the individual blocks.

Screenshot 3 – In Geo mode Zone view groups likewise blocks into zones. The zones may represent different varieties planted, or blocks grouped together for management purposes (fertiliser/fertigation etc.). If blocks were not tested at that particular time, they will still be represented by the average result from the blocks that were tested in that zone.
