“…The break-even point refers to the choice of the pruning and tying operation of the fruiting head. This methodology allows us to determine and measure the cost advantage and to carry out the appropriate microeconomic assessments for companies in terms of production, sales, and marketing strategies [17][18][19] .…”

The research presents the results carried out on Sicilian viticulture in order to study the economic sustainability of the agricultural company. In particular, the author examined the operation of dry pruning and tying of the fruiting head in espalier vineyards with tools that facilitate the work. The economic analysis highlights that equipping yourself with mechanical tools that facilitate work is convenient for both large and small wineries. The results of the research highlight that the investment to facilitate pruning and tying in Guyot-trained vineyards can also be made by wine-growing companies and is increasingly convenient as the area under vines involved increases.

“…A particular aspect of resilience enhancement in agricultural farms is the adoption of insurance policies. In Sicily, Sgroi and Sciancalepore (2022) pointed out that, despite of the positive benefits deriving from the adoption of insurance policies (see, e.g. Russo et al, 2022), the viti-vinicultural enterprise adherence to this opportunity remains below the expectations.…”

This study reports the results of a survey disseminated to Italian winegrowers and wine makers to understand their attitude toward the main climate risk factors on grape and wine productions and their willingness to proactively act in facing the related consequences. A general noticeable concern about the future effects of climate change and variability emerged, even with some differences between stakeholders operating in different geographic and climatic areas. Current signals of adaptation mostly emerged at technological level, but they also included the varietal choice, with evidence to a switch from traditional varieties to others showing better pest and drought tolerance. In addition, some climate-smart cultural practices are considered ranging from water-saving irrigation methods to sustainable energy management.

“…It is reported that this situation is significantly related to the increasing negative effects of climate change [2]. The world population is increasing every year and in order to be protected from the negative effects of climate change, as in all plant species, there is a need to develop preventive/protective activities against these negative effects for viticulture [3].…”
