The grape and wine industry in Ontario and across Canada faces several multifaceted challenges, many caused**by our changing climate, that must be addressed to sustain its annual $6.8 billion national economic impact and**to meet its substantial potential for growth. Ontario's segment of this industry accounts for $3.3 billion, which**supports more than 14,000 jobs across the province in a range of sectors including manufacturing, agriculture,**tourism, transportation, restaurants, and retail and which generates $644 million in annual tourism revenue and**employment (Canadian Vintners Association, 2013, "Canada's Wine Economy - Ripe, Robust, Remarkable").**Through our globally competitive research program, developed in partnership with Ontario Grape and Wine**Research Inc. and inclusive of individual growers and wineries, we will develop solutions to immediate**industry challenges and identify new growth opportunities across the industry's entire value chain by: 1)**providing tools and adaptive strategies for grape growers to overcome the challenges of our changing climate**through the identification of clone/rootstock varieties best suited to our region; 2) commercializing precise**decision-making tools and real-time monitoring technologies with automation to improve productivity and**address current industry challenges; 3) developing a database of polyphenolics (tannins) for use in terroir-based**winemaking to target the consumer style preference and increase domestic and international competitiveness of**Canada's red wines; 4) building Canada's visibility and reputation as a global leader in cool climate oenology**and viticulture; and 5) recruiting, training, and retaining world-class highly qualified personnel (HQP).

安大略省和整个加拿大的葡萄和葡萄酒行业面临着几个多方面的挑战，其中许多挑战**是由我们不断变化的气候引起的，这些挑战必须得到解决，以维持其每年68亿美元的国民经济影响，并**发挥其巨大的增长潜力。安大略省葡萄酒行业的份额为33亿美元，**在包括制造业、农业、**旅游、交通、餐饮和零售在内的一系列行业中支撑着该省超过14,000个工作岗位，并创造了6.44亿美元的年度旅游收入和**就业机会(加拿大葡萄酒商协会，2013，《加拿大葡萄酒经济-成熟、稳健、卓越》)。**通过我们与安大略省葡萄和葡萄酒研究公司合作开发的具有全球竞争力的研究项目，包括个人种植者和葡萄酒厂，我们将制定解决方案，以应对迫在眉睫的**行业挑战，并通过以下方式确定整个行业价值链的新增长机会：1)**通过确定最适合我们地区的克隆/砧木品种，为葡萄种植者提供工具和适应性战略，以应对气候变化的挑战**；2)将精确的**决策工具和实时监测技术自动化商业化，以提高生产率和**应对当前的行业挑战；3)开发多酚(单宁)数据库，用于基于陆地的**葡萄酒酿造，以满足消费者的风格偏好，并增加**加拿大红葡萄酒的国内和国际竞争力；4)建立加拿大作为凉爽气候葡萄酒**和葡萄栽培的全球领导者的知名度和声誉；以及5)招聘、培训和保留世界级的高素质人才(HQP)。
