This knowledge will allow us to classify them according to their intrinsic ability to manage variable water flows. Subsequently, targeted interventions will be designed, which on the one hand aim to improve soil quality (for example, by acting on the depth of exploration of vines and grass cover) and, on the other, to adopt technological solutions for adaptation, such as the design of storage basins and efficient irrigation systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Expected results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The objective, with a view to adapting to climate change, is to be able to define, also for the different territorial areas of Veneto, a replicable, resilient and innovative model capable of improving water resource management in situations of water scarcity or excess.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span data-teams=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-12207\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prosecco.wine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Immagine-2025-10-03-151248-300x54.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"756\" height=\"136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.prosecco.wine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Immagine-2025-10-03-151248-300x54.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.prosecco.wine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Immagine-2025-10-03-151248-768x138.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.prosecco.wine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Immagine-2025-10-03-151248.jpg 966w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 756px) 100vw, 756px\" \/><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Initiative funded by the Veneto Region with a total budget of \u20ac400,000 over three years, of which \u20ac25,000 is allocated to the Consortium to support dissemination activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Water is a precious and strategic resource for viticulture, and in the Prosecco Territories, sustainable water management is a priority.
