with full sun or artificial shade. Winter protection of these plants is required in many parts of the country to eliminate freeze damage to roots. The farm-gate CF of #3 (11.4 L) container shrubs ranged from 1.72 to 3.36 kg CO 2 e depending on the
planting seed; harvesting and grading production; spacing of plants and containers; removal, picking up, loading, and placing of plants; and jamming of plants for winter protection. The nursery and greenhouse industry is often described as one of the
overwintered in an unheated high tunnel for spring harvest in USDA Hardiness Zone 5 sites. Regardless of cultivar, the additional winter protection offered by a supplemental layer of rowcover increased winter survival, yields and earliness. This is consistent
winter protection with mounds of mushroom and/or municipal compost (J-M Farms, Miami, OK; City of Monett, Monett, MO, respectively) during the first five winters; the compost was thereafter spread into the vineyard rows each spring. The study was

block design was used with four replications each with 24 plants. Plants were covered with straw in late Nov. 2002 for winter protection. Straw was removed in late Apr. 2003 and plants were derunnered throughout the season to maintain uniform density
to encourage robust vine development, and graft unions were provided winter protection via an application of municipal compost (City of Monett, MO, USA) and/or mushroom compost (J-M Farms, Inc., Miami, OK, USA) held in place around and above the
