Ecological Farm in Valence

Ecological farmer Guillaume Plantier examines sprouting seeds in his top soil.

"Ecological farming is mainly depending on weather and soil aptitudes to feed and drink plants and micro-organisms. We are powerless regarding weather issues, nevertheless we can work hard, hand in hand with worms (and so many other species of insect, mushrooms or bacterias), to give the best conditions to the seeds we sow. By cultivating different kinds of plants between two crops and incorporating it in the top soil manure compost and few droppings (never more than 15 cm deep)", we can help the soil to improve (light but a bit rough in case of storms!!)."
