Effect of Organic and Conventional Grape Growing Methods on Plant Nutrition Content on Grapevine

Abstract

The research was established in 15 years old Sultana vineyard under irrigable soil conditions in Alaşehir-Yeşilyurt Viticulture Research Institute during organic production phase from 2006 to 2007. This study was conducted to find out the effects of organic and conventional of mineral elements (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, and Mn) of lamina and petiole leaf at Alaşehir, Manisa, which is of a potential important in the production of Sultani Çekirdeksiz grape variety. In the experiment which was carried out in the randomized complete block design with three replications, organic and conventional grape growing were performed. As a result of the research, comparing the conventional and organic grape production methods in terms of the nutrient content of Sultani Çekirdeksiz grape variety, it was determined that the nutrient content in leaf blade and petiole of grapevine in the organic production method has higher values than the conventional method.
