At Sunridge, we take great pride in our commitment to actively collaborate with experts in order to find solutions to better serve our industry. Most recently, we’ve partnered with UC Davis to provide vines for testing and evaluation in their latest trial aimed at innovative treatments to combat trunk diseases. 

Today’s visit was a follow up to administer the second round of treatments to the grafted vines, now that they have just come out of callusing. Our team will immediately plant these vines in pots and after about 12 weeks of growth, they will plan another visit to take the vines for inoculation and further evaluation to complete the last stages of this trial. 

Our commitment lies in not only identifying early detection methods but also prioritizing preventative measures to ensure the utmost health and vitality of our vines. That's why we diligently administer beneficial organisms throughout our propagation process, allowing our vines to flourish and reach optimal health. 

Together, we aim to revolutionize how we approach and manage these diseases, ultimately contributing to a healthier and more sustainable future for the industry.
