Description
New technologies are essential in helping scientists and growers combat vine diseases in vineyards. This week, podcaster and data scientist Tom Moore interviews vine doctor Dion Mundy about his latest research on plant disease monitoring, disease identification, and modelling for future climate changes. Dion was one of our first interviews on Scigest five years ago, and we are delighted he has joined the Scigest podcast team and will be recording some of the exciting science stories emerging from our Marlborough (viticulture) and Motueka (berries, hops, and kiwifruit) sites.
