The VMECH Chariot Can Improve Efficiency in Your Vineyard

The VMECH Chariot’s dual precision pruner adapts to various trellis types and enables pre-pruning and near finish pruning, covering up to 3 acres per hour and saving up to $600 per acre. The versatile Chariot has multiple attachment options to keep it useful year-round, including shoot thinning and trunk suckering.

Farmers report significant savings—over $500,000 within 60 days of integrating the Chariot into their operations. Our team has taken on several projects with the highly respected viticulture & enology programs at UC Davis, Cornell and Fresno State.
