Generations of Sustainable Agriculture
Situated in the fertile Rhône Valley just outside of Lyon, EARL des Bruyères has been a family farm for many generations. Located on 425 hectares of land, much of which is dedicated to corn production, the farmers use integrated crop management to maximize yield and quality while minimizing environmental impact.
Digital tools like section control and GPS help improve the effectiveness of seeding, fertilizer use, and spraying on the farm. In addition to driving efficiencies with resource use the farm also puts strong efforts into environmental care such as setting up flowering strips and bee hotels that nurture and protect valuable pollinators throughout the seasons.

Generationenübergreifende nachhaltige Landwirtschaft
Im fruchtbaren Rhônetal vor den Toren Lyons gelegen, ist EARL des Bruyères schon seit vielen Generationen ein Familienbetrieb. Auf 425 Hektar Land, von denen ein Großteil für den Maisanbau genutzt wird, wenden die Landwirte integriertes Pflanzenmanagement an, um Ertrag und Qualität zu maximieren und gleichzeitig die Umweltbelastung zu minimieren.
Digitale Werkzeuge wie Abschnittskontrolle und GPS helfen, die Effektivität der Aussaat, des Düngereinsatzes und des Sprühens im Betrieb zu verbessern. Neben der effizienten Ressourcennutzung bemüht sich der Betrieb auch intensiv um den Umweltschutz, indem er zum Beispiel Blühstreifen und Bienenhotels anlegt, die wertvolle Bestäuber über die Jahreszeiten hinweg nähren und schützen.
