About this Event
Join us at Denbies Wine Estate for a live vineyard demonstration of the Frosco Frost Protection system, with the opportunity to see the latest developments in the technology and learn more about its role in protecting vineyards from damaging spring frost events.
Over the last three years, the development of Frosco and the way it is applied in the vineyard has continued to progress. In particular, the application system has evolved significantly with the focus now firmly on developing a dedicated tractor-mounted sprayer capable of delivering Frosco efficiently at vineyard scale.
A major focus of the day will be the opportunity to see the latest development of this tractor-mounted Frosco sprayer in action and to hear directly from the team about the work underway to further improve its speed, efficiency and precision of application.
The day will be led by George and Julian from Frosco, alongside keynote speaker and frost specialist Thomas Chassaing. The morning will begin in one of the conference rooms at Denbies, where the team will explain how Frosco works, share the latest trial results and discuss what has been learned through its continued development and use in the vineyard.
We’ll then head out into the vineyard for a live demonstration of the tractor-mounted Frosco application system, giving attendees the opportunity to see first-hand how the technology has progressed and the direction of travel towards a practical and scalable application solution for commercial vineyards.
The demonstration will be followed by an informal Q&A and the opportunity to put questions directly to Frosco founder George Klat and Thomas Chaissang
The event is hosted by The Vineyard Store, Frosco’s UK distribution partner, with Paul, Austin and Robin also present throughout the day.
