Four surveys enquiring about plant material and plantation practices for main wine labels in vineyards of Languedoc-Roussillon

This dataset contains variables describing yield, management practices, plant material and plantation characteristics in vineyard plots (n = 3507) of the Languedoc-Rousillon region. This dataset is an anonymized version with selected data from surveys carried out by Agreste, the agricultural statistical service of the French Ministry of Agriculture. In the surveys, public agents enquired about vineyard characteristics and farming practices of randomly chosen plots in all France, with vines older than 3 years and involved in full wine production the indicated year. The dataset available here is a result of a combination of 2 surveys: Enquête de Pratiques culturales en Viticulture corresponding to the following years: 2006 and 2013-2014 and Enquête de Pratiques Phytosanitaires en Viticulture 2010 and 2016. Access to the surveys involved confidential data, therefore we used a secure environment offered by CASD – Centre d’Accès Sécurisé aux Données. We then selected only plots located in Languedoc-Roussillon region, picked relevant variables and anonymized the result. The variables describe yield, management practices, plant material and plantation characteristics of the vineyard plots.
