The effect of the global climate change on the vitality of viticulture in Russia

Abstract

We described in this article the features of the impact of global climate change on wine-growing enterprises of the Russian Federation. Statistical data on the areas under vineyards of all agricultural organizations in the country were analyzed and displayed by regions. The daily amounts of solar radiation arriving at the horizontal surface in the study area are shown and similar climatic conditions are found with some French regions. Information was collected on the dynamics of average monthly and annual temperatures in the southern cities of the RF for 1980 and 2021, which proved that in all regional centers, the main regions of industrial viticulture, over the past 40 years the average monthly and annual temperature has only increased. We provided tables and figures displaying unique information on agroclimatic indicators of the regions of interest. Based on the data presented, conclusions are drawn and measures are proposed for the rational cultivation of vineyards, taking into account the distinctive features of different climatic zones in a changing climate.
