GiESCO 2025 in Geisenheim
We are pleased to host and warmly invite you to the 23rd international GiESCO 2025 conference at Geisenheim University. It takes places from July 27th to 31st, 2025.
Entitled "Above and Below – Towards the Future", the conference will address the key challenges in viticulture of today and tomorrow. In particular the program focuses on physiological responses to abiotic and biotic stresses, sustainable and organic viticulture, and soil and water management. These topics are crucial for addressing climate change and enhancing biodiversity in all its facets.
In addition to the scientific program, a professional day will be organized to facilitate interaction with growers and identify future issues in grapevine cultivation. Also, young researchers are encouraged to apply for the Young Researcher Award. A visit to wineries in the Rheingau Valley and surrounding will provide an interesting insight into local growing and production conditions and allow for networking with regional growers.
