Project presentation
This agricultural project on 253.2 hectares in the municipality of NOYANT-VILLAGES implements responsible practices designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase carbon storage in soils, contributing to sequester 578 tons of CO₂ over its lifetime. Certified by the CARBON AGRI method of the Low-Carbon Label, it promotes more resilient and sustainable agricultural ecosystems.

🧪
Optimisation de la fertilisation
Fort — la fertilisation azotée représente 40 à 60 % des émissions GES en grandes culturesL'optimisation de la fertilisation consiste à ajuster précisément les apports d'engrais (azote, phosphore, potassium) aux besoins réels des cultures. L'objectif est de réduire les excédents qui se transforment en protoxyde d'azote (N₂O), un gaz à effet de serre 265 fois plus puissant que le CO₂.
Did you know?
Le saviez-vous ? La fabrication d'une tonne d'engrais azoté consomme autant d'énergie que 1,5 tonne de pétrole. Réduire les engrais, c'est aussi économiser de l'énergie fossile.
🩺
Conduite sanitaire du troupeau
Moyen — gain d'efficacité de 5 à 10 % sur les émissions par unité produiteAméliorer la conduite sanitaire signifie prévenir les maladies plutôt que les soigner. Un animal en bonne santé produit plus efficacement, émet moins de méthane par unité produite et vit plus longtemps, réduisant les besoins de renouvellement du troupeau.
Did you know?
Le saviez-vous ? Un veau atteint de diarrhée néonatale émettra 20 % de méthane en plus sur toute sa vie à cause des séquelles digestives. La prévention est aussi un levier carbone.
🔥
Méthanisation
Très fort — peut réduire de 50 à 80 % les émissions liées au stockage des déjectionsLa méthanisation transforme les déjections animales et les déchets végétaux en biogaz (méthane utilisable comme énergie) et en digestat (fertilisant naturel). Elle capte le méthane qui serait émis dans l'atmosphère et le valorise en énergie renouvelable.
Did you know?
Le saviez-vous ? Une exploitation de 100 vaches produit assez de biogaz pour chauffer 50 maisons. Le fumier devient une énergie renouvelable au lieu d'émettre du méthane dans l'atmosphère.
Environmental & social impacts
Beyond carbon sequestration, each project generates measurable positive impacts on the environment and local communities. Here is the detailed assessment of this project.
🌍Climate
73%
This project sequesters 2.3 tCO₂/ha over its lifetime. Carbon is captured in biomass (trunks, branches, roots) and soils. This is the project's primary impact: contributing to climate change mitigation by removing CO₂ from the atmosphere.
Biodiversity
Significant impact65%
This project creates a rich habitat for wildlife. The ecological corridors formed allow species to circulate, promoting pollination and natural biological pest control.
Water
Significant impact79%
Over 253.2 ha, the vegetation cover acts as a natural filter. Roots promote water infiltration into soils, reduce runoff and erosion, and enable groundwater recharge. Downstream water quality is directly improved.
Soils
Significant impact91%
The root system structures the soil in depth. Litter (dead leaves, twigs) enriches organic matter, feeds soil microorganisms and increases water retention capacity. A living, fertile soil is the foundation of a resilient ecosystem.
Socio-economic
Moderate impact84%
This project of 253.2 ha in NOYANT-VILLAGES supports the local economy: direct jobs (planting, maintenance, monitoring), enhancement of the territory and natural heritage. It strengthens the link between rural communities and their environment, contributing to the ecological transition.
Sustainable Development Goals
The 17 SDGs are a global framework defined by the United Nations to build a sustainable future by 2030. This project directly contributes to 4 of them. Here's why.
2
Zero Hunger
End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition
Why this project: With 253.2 ha of sustainable farming practices in NOYANT-VILLAGES, this project improves long-term soil productivity, secures food yields and strengthens farm resilience against climate risks — directly contributing to local food security.
12
Responsible Consumption and Production
Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns
Why this project: This project transforms farming practices on 253.2 ha towards more responsible production: reduced chemical inputs, soil cover, crop diversification.
13
Climate Action
Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
Why this project: This is the primary impact: this project sequesters 578 tons of CO2 over its lifetime, certified by the Low-Carbon Label. Every ton removed from the atmosphere directly contributes to fighting climate change.
15
Life on Land
Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems
Why this project: By reintroducing soil-friendly practices (cover crops, hedges, reduced tillage), this project restores terrestrial life on 253.2 ha.
