San Polo Montalcino - Sustainable Program 2022-2023

The Biodiversity indicator evaluates the environmental aspects by applying the procedures envisaged by the "Biodiversity Indices", (created in 2010 by WBA Onlus) for the evaluation of the conservation of biodiversity in agriculture, within the "Biodiversity Friend®" protocol ”. We detect and track the presence of particular organisms, defined as biological indicators: • Lycian Biodiversity Index : presence and frequency of epiphytes lyrics detected on the cortex of trees. • Aquatic Biodiversity Index: presence and frequency of aquatic animals • Soil Biodiversity Index: based on the analysis of soil samples in which the presence of soil invertebrates is detected (annelids, collembolas, mites, isopods, myriapods, insects.)
