Wine is a product that is a worldwide passion. However, its slow production and the scarcity of natural resources is shaking the foundations of this sector. It is a very powerful industry economically, so organizations are already looking for alternatives to traditional plantations to maximize profits with less impact on the environment. Mastering winemaking processes and the new technologies that will accompany production in future years are some of the skills to be acquired by wine professionals.

The adaptation of grapes to drier environments can occur naturally. However, there are technological tools that have already proven to be key in this regard. One of them is AgroMapping, this technology is already being applied by many companies and allows them to interpret, through drones, the crop maps and detect, in turn, needs in fertilizer, pruning or irrigation. In addition, AI is fundamental in this scientific revolution, because thanks to it, research has been obtained, such as the collaboration project between the ERDF and the CDTI. A study that demonstrated the combination of data with cadastral and climatological information for real-time crop monitoring on farms.

These are just a few of the advances that agricultural engineers must be up to date with in order to be part of the vanguard in this sector. For this reason, TECH has developed a comprehensive 6-month program, which delves into the state of the world's wine regions; the winemaking processes, its components from the agricultural phase, as well as the varieties in the product itself, white, rosé and red wines. All this, through a 100% online mode that provides ease and flexibility for students to study from anywhere and at any time, having only an electronic device and Internet connection.
