this week, we visited the conservatory of vine varieties INRA Domaine de Vassal to learn about the management and conservation of cabbage·collections. It is the most comprehensive conservation center in the world vine, over 2500 Vitis Vinifera varieties and hundreds of hybrid varieties and rootstocks.

The team of the center showed us the scrupulous work of mechanics perfected since its inception in the late nineteenth century. It was especially interesting to see the logic with which plants and organize file system and monitoring of all information. They could also take note of the different techniques used by vegetative propagation.

The center of distilled Vassal·the rigor and professionalism combined with a sharp public vocation and networking with any related experience. They can learn a lot.

Thanks, Jean Michel, Thierry, bladder, Sandrine i Daniel.
