Agricultural terraces are the predominant landscape element in the Goriška brda region. These were once made by hand, but started being built mechanically after the Second World War. Reshaping slopes ...into terraces increases the amount of arable farmland. Farming, especially cultivation of vineyards and orchards, is still the most important industry in this region. The development of winegrowing has indelibly marked the image of the cultural landscape here.Terraces are mostly being abandoned in regions with market-oriented mechanized farming. Much of the formerly terraced land in upper Goriška brda is now completely overgrown or deteriorated. The former extent of these agricultural terraces cannot even be precisely determined using the land cadastre carried out under Emperor Franz I. In contrast, the agricultural terraces in lower Goriška brda are being constantly renovated.Maintenance of terraces prevents water loss and reduces soil erosion. When the shape of hillsides is changed, large quantities of soil are moved, and steep slopes are altered, this can cause land slippage and large areas can become unstable. Detailed study indicates that Goriška brda is exposed to a high risk of landslides.This study was carried out as part of Interreg project IIIB Alpine Space, titled “The Terraced Landscapes of the Alpine Arc” (ALPTER).

The focus of the analyses is on the determinants in the life-cycle of wine tourist product development and the growth of the wineries entrepreneurship in the Goriška Brda wine district situated on ...the Slovenian border with Italy. This is one of the fastest growing wine tourism districts in Slovenia. The analysis was based on the in-depth survey of 20 most active family wineries. Almost one-third of them started with wine production before 1991, around half of the wineries inherited the winery from the parents, often husband and wife are full-time self-employed in the winery, and they gain some support from other family members, and sometimes also from non-family members. The importance and growth of wine tourism is quantified by the number of wineries that are open for visits with guided tours and sale of wine in the winery, employment specialization into the wine tourism, specialized tourist products such as local traditional food and accommodation, the increasing importance of the marketing communication tools and promotion methods for visits of the winery, and the increasing revenues from the wine tourism. Relatively high wine prices provide survival opportunities also for smaller wineries, which have made several innovations by the shifts in the growing types of grapes from traditional towards grapes for high quality wine, and improvements in wine making, but the main innovations are in the wineries entrepreneurial efforts for wine sales in the winery and through activities that are related to the wine tourism.
