Agroecosystems are facing numerous challenges: climate change, decline in biodiversity, need for input reduction, need for sustainable quality food supply, new dietary behaviors as well as new perception of agriculture at a global level, etc.
Our production modes need to adapt in order to face the threefold challenge: economic, social and environmental sustainability. Challenge 1 of CAP 20-25 focuses on two agricultural systems that are emblematic of the Auvergne region: cereals (predominant in the plain of Limagne) and herbivores (predominant livestock in moderately mountainous areas), as well as on key socioeconomic partners such as Limagrain and the ARIA. Ultimately, the project ambition is to optimize the integration of agricultural systems into their environment and territories. This implies raising these systems resilience and sustainability levels taking into account their production and environmental performances, while addressing social demands (end-product quality, animal welfare, etc.).
