Bordeaux estate turns to space tech to monitor vines in real time
A Bordeaux organic estate is now using satellite technology to monitor its vineyards in real time, marking a shift towards high-tech viticulture. The system, developed by Finnish firm Kuva Space, uses hyperspectral imaging to detect subtle changes in vine health before they're visible to the naked eye, helping identify early signs of stress from disease, pests, or nutrient issues. It's an innovative approach that's becoming more practical and affordable thanks to newer satellite constellations, and it fits perfectly with organic farming principles and the need to adapt to increasingly unpredictable growing conditions.
