Les avantages du semis à la volée des couverts végétaux avant moisson

Jérôme Labreuche, ingénieur chez Arvalis, met en lumière les bénéfices du semis à la volée des couverts végétaux avant la moisson. Cette technique, qui utilise l'humidité résiduelle des cultures de céréales à paille, pourrait non seulement améliorer la santé des sols mais aussi favoriser la biodiversité. En intégrant cette méthode, les agriculteurs pourraient réduire l'érosion et optimiser la structure du sol, transformant ainsi les pratiques culturales vers une approche plus durable.
