EFFECTS OF SUPPRESSION OF HERBICIDES ON VINEYARD NITROGEN STATUS, AND SOIL MICROBIAL AND CHEMICAL INDICATORS
Background
• Cover cropping in vineyards can bring many ecosystem services but can induce competition for nitrogen and water with grapevine (Celette et al., 2009).
• Cover cropping is widespread in Northern Eastern of France but chemical weeding under vine rows is still widely used to limit competition (Wilmes, 2014).
• Grapevine nitrogen nutrition, depends on N availability in soil and microbial activity, which can be affected by cultural practices (Steenwerth and Belina, 2008).
• Since 2014, the project « soil management in viticulture » aims to study the impact of suppression of herbicides on nitrogen dynamics in grapevine and in soil.

Low nitrogen status
• 2014 and 2015 (not shown) : Nitrogen deficiency in IS
effect of competition with cover crop at veraison
• 2016 : N deficiency less pronounced in IS
Effect of fertilization applied in May 2016
• N deficiency in center of CS lack of fertilization
Microbial and chemical indices

3 stages
• 2014: drop of Nitrogen indices of IS (NBI, Wood weight and Yeast available nitrogen)
• 2015 : stronger drop of yield and Nitrogen indices IS grapevine is more impacted the 2nd year
Decision : addition of an organic fertilization in 2016• 2016 : recover of N indices following organic fertilization but
yield still low• Presence of weed induces a competition for nitrogen

• Transition towards non chemical soil management can induce significant drop of grapevine’s yield and others indices due to an competition for nitrogen, but organic fertilization can counteract these effects.
• However, at the soil microbial level, year effect is more noticeable than soil cover cropping under row.• At this stage, further analyses in next years are needed in order to determine which parameter is more sensitive to soil management
practices.
Effects of innovative soil management : - At grapevine level : induces N drop visible in leaves,
grapes and wood, with a yield decrease.Fertilization enhances N availability but effect on yield is
delayed.- At soil level : no significant effects on microbial
parameters and on N availability in soil.

• N mineralization rate and other microbial indices taken separately don’t show significant differences
between the 2 systems• PCA : Year effect stronger than
system effect • NO3
- concentration correlates with 16S and 18S DNA
Microbial communities more sensitive to climatic conditions than
soil management practices
