It must answer a double equation; move towards even more virtuous and sustainable practices, while retaining its nurturing role accessible to the greatest number of our fellow citizens. Thanks to anaerobic digestion, we propose to valorize local non-food agricultural materials to produce renewable gas (replacing fossil gas) and organic fertilizer to nourish our land in a natural way. Our support for the TerrEnergies360 collective The diversity of this group is a richness which is based on several criteria: The size of our farms, The establishment of our operations on the territory, Our ages combining experience, wisdom, modernity and dynamism, The coexistence of several production models in line with the plurality of consumer expectations: Organic Agriculture, Environmental certification, food and / or environmental labels. This multiformity, which is in a way similar to that of our fellow citizens, is for us an asset and an excellent reason to engage in this collective approach because we share a common objective: to work together and join forces to respond to the agro-ecological transition. and food and the sustainability of our agriculture. Our project is territorial, which is why it is open to other local farmers likely to share our values and our objectives. The diversity of this collective, turned towards agro-ecology Through our farming methods, our productions, whether or not we belong to an agricultural cooperative, our collective is very diverse. Within our group there are differentiated practices most often guaranteed by public certifications and private labels. Certifications and labels that reflect our desire to pursue our commitments All these approaches orient our agricultural model towards: The biodiversity of soils and territories, The reduction of chemical inputs for the benefit of natural inputs, Good management of water resources, La préservation de la vocation nourricière de notre agriculture. Cela se traduit concrètement sur nos exploitations par : Des Zones de Non Traitement et des Mesures Agro-Environnementales, Une couverture des sols via des Zones de Non Traitement et/ou de cultures intermédiaires Des fertilisants organiques naturels pour suppléer l’absence ou la diminution d’usage d’intrants de synthèse et régénérer nos sols en matière organique, L’usage d’outils de précision et d’aides à la décision pour optimiser et préserver les ressources naturelles. La préservation des sols avec les cultures intermédiaires Implantées entre deux cultures principales alimentaires, les cultures intermédiaires assurent une couverture des sols dans le but de : Limit soil erosion and leaching, Fight naturally against weeds, Develop biodiversity, Regenerate soils and sequester carbon from the air without financial valuation. As they grow, thanks to photosynthesis and nutrients in the soil, these crops capture carbon from the air (CO2) to create organic matter. Intermediate crops are not grown to maturity, they are generally not valued otherwise and left in the ground. They are part of a soil conservation process.
