  abstract = {{I}n the {M}editerranean area, rainfed viticulture is exposed to irregular rainfall distribution. {T}he impacts on production and environment can be mitigated by appropriate management practices like, for instance, the introduction of cover crop in the inter-rows in vineyards. {T}his paper presents the {VERDI} simulation model created to study various adaptive intercrop management strategies at field scale. {T}he purpose is to design management strategies that are responsive to the water status of the biophysical system (soil - grapevine - intercrop) and the past and current climatic conditions. {VERDI} realistically reproduces the dynamic interactions between the biophysical system and the decision system in varying {M}editerranean rain regime. {T}he decision system works as an interpreter of a management strategy, defined as a set of soil surface management activities (e.g. mechanical weeding of the intercrop) that are linked by temporal constraints (e.g. sequencing, synchronisation) and organisational or programmatic specifications (e.g. iteration). {T}he adaptive capabilities of the strategies are distinguished according to the different sources of flexibility to be exploited at operational, tactical, and strategic levels. {A} simulation study is reported that involves more or less flexible strategies under different climate scenarios. {T}he simulation results proved that, in case of severe drought, the most flexible strategy yields the best trade-off between agricultural production and environmental services over the years.},
