Economic and environmental performance

The next Culturales® will be held on 22 and 23 June 2011 at Villers-Saint-Christophe in Aisne, northern France. This traditional technical field meeting will enable arable farmers to gather ideas and solutions from 31 associated partners and 120 exhibitors.

Income, quality, environment: innovation the priority

By presenting innovations in plant protection, sustainable weed control, genetics, fertilisation, cover crops and farm management, the organisers are fully committed to the aim « Produce more and produce better ». Participants will visit fields of wheat, oilseed rape, maize, grain legumes, sugar beet, barley, potatoes and flax.

ARVALIS - Institut du végétal has many partners

With a large number of partners, ARVALIS – Institut du vegetal aims to meet growers’
expectations and to collectively create an event which provides the most appropriate
responses. Associated since the conception of these field days, the technical experts will be
talking about efficient, profitable and environmentally friendly farming.

Innovation for all your arable crops :

Approaches per thematic.....on the field!

	Genetic potential - Demonstration plots on varieties - Contribution from genomic: more precise breeding to find better resistances - Sowing: dates and conditions, density, distance between rows, strip till - Climate change and biomass production
	Fertilisation and cover crops - Improving fertilisation inputs efficiency - New nitrogen sources: management of intercropping period, grain legumes, crops mixtures, effluents management… - Preservation or improvement of soils fertility
	Sustainable weeds management - New products - Levers to reduce pesticides use: conventional or mechanical, which combination? - Decision support systems - Visit of trials plots on harrowing of sugar beet and oilseed rape
	New ways for plant protection - Take advantage of varietal resistance - Monitoring network and diagnosis of crop damages - New products, elicitors of plant defence reactions - Innovative cropping techniques - Control of emerging pests - Decision support systems for an economical and focused protection
	The progress Galaxy : how will we produce in 2025 ?
	Farm management - Indicators of economic efficiency - Environment, biodiversity, energy - Non-feed use
