Cicadelle de la vigne
The grapevine leafhopper (Scaphoideus titanus) is a vector of Flavescence dorée, a serious disease that weakens grapevines, causes leaf yellowing, and can lead to crop losses. By feeding on phloem sap, it transmits the pathogen from infected vines to healthy ones.
Monitoring tools such as E-GLEEK enable the detection of its arrival in vineyard plots and support timely intervention, helping to limit spread and protect the vineyard.
What damage does the grapevine leafhopper (Scaphoideus titanus) cause?
Transmission of Flavescence dorée phytoplasma
The leafhopper spreads the disease by piercing grapevine shoots and feeding on phloem sap, rapidly infecting healthy vines.
Plant weakening
Infected grapevines show leaf yellowing or reddening and reduced vigour.
Yield loss
Clusters desiccate or ripen poorly, leading to significant yield reduction.
Crop monitoring and scouting using Advansee
To protect your crops, E-GLEEK offers an innovative monitoring solution based on systematic field observation throughout the entire crop growth cycle. This approach enables early detection of pest insect arrival and tracking of their population dynamics, allowing for rapid and effective action. Thanks to this continuous monitoring, growers can make targeted decisions to limit damage and preserve crop health and yield.
Advansee support for growers
Advansee supports vegetable growers, orchardists, and arable crop producers in integrating remote trap monitoring solutions, enabling preventive and effective pest surveillance. This support includes device configuration, platform training, and technical assistance, ensuring that each vineyard or orchard grower can easily use the system and obtain reliable data from the very first days.
Thanks to this approach, growers can rapidly detect harmful insects and reduce crop damage in a targeted way. Advansee has already tested these solutions with leading partners such as the BIVB and BNIC, demonstrating the effectiveness and reliability of its field-based support.
Diagnosis
We have analysed the issue of the grapevine leafhopper (Scaphoideus titanus) and identified the most sensitive areas to monitor in order to better anticipate early infestations, reduce pest pressure, limit disease occurrence, and preserve crop health.
Deployment
Installation of E-GLEEK devices in vineyards, configuration of the equipment, and activation of automated capture monitoring, enabling field observation and crop scouting without the need for daily manual intervention.
Optimization
Adjustment of trap positioning, image calibration, and alert configuration according to monitoring protocols, ensuring reliable data and early detection of pest infestation.
Initial results
Active monitoring has enabled early surveys to quickly detect initial leafhopper flights, helping growers intervene at the right time before any impact on the vineyard.
Our technological tools for pest insect monitoring:
Trap
E-gleek
A connected trap that analyzes the number of trapped insects and issues alerts when an insect flight is detected or when the sticky card is saturated.
- Combined with analysis software
- Email or SMS alert
- 12 months of autonomy
