WHO WE ARE PRODUCTION SERVICES TO MEMBERS SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE HOUSE ORGAN WEATHER FORECAST CONTACTS Sustainable agriculture Our today and our tomorrow Many now argue that there is no other way than to conceive agriculture in a sustainable way. Not an ethical choice but a real necessity given by the fact that if today it is estimated that 60% of the world population depends on agriculture to survive, it is expected that by 2050 the growth in demand for agricultural products will increase, likewise pace with the increase of the population, by 50%. This means that it will be increasingly necessary to adopt a system that guarantees respect for the land and natural resources useful for sustenance and well-being. The answer therefore lies in a path that Covalm has been following for some time, starting with the organic supply chain to which many of our consortium members have now joined. But what is meant by sustainable or eco-compatible or integrated agriculture? Parola d’ordine è il rispetto sia per i processi naturali che preservano la “risorsa ambiente”, contrapposti quindi all’agricoltura intensiva, sia per chi ogni giorno lavora la terra garantendo dunque un equo reddito, la tutela della sua salute, la sua soddisfazione. Un’agricoltura sostenibile è quella cioè lontana da pratiche dannose per il suolo e dall’uso e l’abuso di sostanze chimiche. È quella che opera per ridurre al minimo lo spreco d’acqua utilizzando sistemi di irrigazione ottimizzati; è quella che punta alla rotazione delle colture e a conservare così la fertilità del terreno analizzandolo nel tempo col fine ultimo di ridurre al minimo l’utilizzo di fertilizzanti.
