The Québec government’s Sustainable Agriculture Plan aims to improve soil health and conservation.

When growing forage crops in a large area of land, there are many ways to be more efficient and cost-effective. Here are some things to consider to help you achieve high yields, reduce production costs and improve the profitability of your farm.

So, the workers there decided to roll up their sleeves to reduce the environmental footprint of their operations. They began to search their containers for a way to recover the waste, with help from partner companies.
