Label Bas Carbone
Examples: reducing the frequency of soil cultivation, minimalist plot preparation, restoring organic matter and preserving soil microfauna.
Examples: territorial dynamics, societal demand, diversification of the activity, local sales/processing, working conditions, sharing of good practices.
Examples: Consideration of wetlands, use of adapted species, drip-connected irrigation tools.

Agricultural walnut and hazelnut cooperative that brings together more than 350 producers in the western half of France.
Read moreExtension of 9ha of orchards in the exploitation of Henri Moncassin
Henri Moncassin's farm plans to expand its hazelnut crops by planting 9 ha of orchards during the winter of 2022-2023. The selected plots were previously used for annual cereal crops.
Planting permanent trees will sequester more CO2 throughout the year than a temporary crop. This project will store 515.38 tons of CO2 equivalent in 20 years*.
The water resource will be used in small quantities because the orchards will have a buried drip irrigation system, as well as connected tools (probes, electro-programmed valves) which allow reasoned watering.
This project also makes it possible to relocate the production of hazelnuts in France because this product is today very mainly imported from abroad. The hazelnuts from the farm are distributed on French territory thanks to the Unicoque cooperative.
The soil will also be able to sequester more CO2 because it will no longer be worked each year. In addition, this new plantation will require little fertilizer and treatment compared to previous crops. This new cultural itinerary will contribute to avoiding emissions and makes the project even more virtuous.
* The final value of the estimate will only be established after verification by an independent auditor and an administrative verification decision.
