OSU Research Reports
Since the mid 80s, the Oregon winegrape industry has funded research that meets the needs of both viticulture and enology in the state. Early reports were published yearly for the Oregon Wine Advisory Board and are available on the Oregon State University website. At this site you can view OSU viticulture and enology research progress reports by topic or year of submission.
