Ver de Terre Production is a french SME, created in order to promote and develop the living soil in a new way of communication and knowledges transfer. It gather farmers, researchers, actors of professional world and teachers under one global subject : soil is the heart of agricultural systems. The agriculture that we promote is based on the reduction of tillage and the temporal maximization of plant cover. Thanks to these guidelines, these plots see their carbon rate increase, which makes them real CO2 sinks. VDT is recognized in France to lead the open source diffusion of agroecology knowledge and pilot farmer portraits via a 12 millions views Youtube channel and online formations. Agriculture R&D is also done with on field quality measurement, knowledge platform animation (tripleperformance.fr) and a development of a pragmatic toolbox for farmers.
