FERME DU CHANOY

AUTONOMY AND INDEPENDENCE 

The general orientation of the farm consists in favoring a system which corresponds to its vision of French agriculture:

• Organic cultivation to limit the impact on the environment, health and biodiversity

• Implementation of renewable energies, for self-consumption only and not to supply an economically distorted market.

• Development of peasant seeds adapted to the terroir of the farm and independent of agrochemicals.

• Use of second-hand equipment, limiting the consumption of natural reserves, and simple, far from robotization which directly threatens the farming profession.

• Increase in direct sales (since 2005) which guarantees a fair price to the producer and the consumer, while maintaining a local economic ecosystem opposed to the ambiguous marketing of mass distribution.
