V&E Extension held a seminar and field day at the UC Davis campus called "Current Developments in Vineyard Mechanization and Precision Viticulture" on April 22, 2016. Some of the underlying themes included labor issues and the looming increases in California's minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2022.
Two very successful on-campus workshops were held at the UC Davis Conference Center recently, addressing themes of Managing Oxygen for Wine Composition and Stability and Practical Color and Tannin Management Strategies.
