    Solution

    The Bower system is a grapevine training system used for vigorous varieties, where the vines are spread over a pandal (pergola) at a height of 2-2.4 meters above the ground. This system helps discourage axillary shoot growth for the first 1 meter and encourages the development of two primary branches with 3-4 pairs of secondary arms. The system allows for better air circulation and sunlight penetration, leading to improved grape production.
