VIVA Project
Assessing the Impact of Viticulture on the Environment
The Ministry of Ecological Transition launched the national VIVA project in 2011, which aims to measure and improve the sustainability performance of the wine supply chain through the analysis of four indicators.
Venica joined from the pilot phase, becoming part of the group of 9 companies that started the project. Today, 107 companies have joined VIVA.
Air
The AIR indicator expresses the total greenhouse gas emissions generated, directly and indirectly, by company activities
Water
The WATER indicator expresses the potential environmental impacts resulting from the use of fresh water.
Territory
The TERRITORY indicator assesses the consequences of business activities on the territory, understood as the environment, biodiversity, landscape protection and enhancement, and the human community with its social and economic consequences.
Vineyard
The VINEYARD indicator assesses agronomic management practices: the use of pesticides and their impact on water, air and soil;
Venica's commitment
Environmental eco-sustainability is the starting point of a process that brings producers and consumers together and focuses attention on the uniqueness of each wine as an expression of individual production. By committing ourselves to maintaining the integrity of the soil and protecting biodiversity, we add value to our business and become 'sentinels' of the territory.
