ARBRE Network - Better integration of biodiversity issues in the farms of Maine-et-Loire (France): testimonies

Abstract

Preserving habitats and species, encouraging auxiliaries and reducing the use of pesticides, preserving and revitalizing soil life, responding to territorial issues and social demands... How can agroecological infrastructures implemented on farms meet these challenges? In Maine-et-Loire, three farmers from the ARBRE network (Farmers respecting biodiversity and the environment) talk about their commitment to better preserve the soil and the environment and to integrate biodiversity into the functioning of their farms.
