OUR TRAINING COURSE PROGRAM IN AGROECOLOGY AND AGRONOMY
SOIL FERTILITY, PLANT NUTRITION, PH AND REDOX POTENTIAL INFLUENCE
DISCOVER OUR DIFFERENT TRAINING SUBJECTS!
We offer training courses on various topics to facilitate the acquisition of quality agronomic knowledge and to enable farmers to increase the fertility of their soil, to adapt their systems in order to obtain quality harvests in quantity and thus evolve towards a multi-performaning agriculture (technically, economically and humanely).
You will find here the subjects we are currently offering.
MOVING TOWARDS AGROECOLOGY TO IMPROVE YOUR TECHNICAL AND AGRONOMIC PERFORMANCE
South of the Landes (40)
14 hours
Summer 2026
Implementing an agroecological model on your farm to improve profitability and technical outcomes. This course provides a new agronomic perspective. Beyond the levers of soil fertility, it explores the importance of a living soil for a high-quality soil-plant relationship, and examines how the system functions and the most suitable practices to sustain it.
UNDERSTANDING AND MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR SOIL ANALYSIS TO INCREASE FERTILITY
Webinar
7 hours
Summer 2026
Soil analysis is a fundamental tool for monitoring soil health and fertility. This course provides all the knowledge needed to interpret results correctly, adapt cultural practices accordingly, and support soil fertility and the soil-plant relationship. A dedicated session is given to the collective analysis of documents brought by participants.
REDOX POTENTIAL AND pH: UNDERSTANDING THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE SOIL-PLANT RELATIONSHIP TO BETTER DEVELOP AGROECOLOGICAL PRACTICES
South of the Landes (40)
7 hours
Summer 2026
The recent work of Olivier Husson brings a new perspective on the influence of the pH-redox potential in the soil-plant relationship. This course examines the different dimensions of this parameter and identifies the practices to prioritise in order to move towards a high-performance agroecological model.
SOIL ANALYSIS: BECOMING AUTONOMOUS IN DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENT AND FORMULATING AGRONOMIC SOLUTIONS
South of the Landes (40)
7 hours
Summer 2026
This course follows on from "Understanding and Making the Most of Your Soil Analysis to Increase Fertility." Its objective is to enable participants to connect indicators, build a complete diagnostic assessment, and formulate agronomic solutions.
INCREASING SOIL FERTILITY: FROM KNOWLEDGE TO IMPLEMENTING A FARM-LEVEL APPROACH
South of the Landes (40)
14 hours
Summer 2026
Soil fertility plays a central role in achieving abundant, high-quality yields. This course explains how soil fertility is structured and how to develop it. It includes a field workshop on participants' own plots to apply the learning and adapt production systems accordingly.
PLANT NUTRITION: UNDERSTANDING ALL THE MECHANISMS AND HOW TO OPTIMISE THEM TO BUILD HIGH-PERFORMANCE SYSTEMS — APPLIED REASONING AT FARM SCALE
South of the Landes (40)
14 hours
Summer 2026
Throughout its development, the plant draws on soil resources to ensure its growth and produce biomass in both quantity and quality. Recent agronomic research confirms that these two parameters are closely linked. This course covers how the soil-plant relationship is structured and which practices are most appropriate. The second part focuses on how to design a relevant observation itinerary directly in the field.
SUCCEEDING WITH COVER CROPS TO IMPROVE YOUR AGROECOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE
Habas (40)
7 hours
Thursday 02 of July 2026
Cover crops are important agroecological levers. They provide numerous services at plot and ecosystem level. This course covers their composition, sowing, management, and termination in sequence. It is also an opportunity to reflect on how to position them within rotations to improve cropping systems.
BESPOKE TRAINING
Location to be agreed
Duration to be agreed
Dates to be agreed
We also offer bespoke training addressing agronomic topics such as soil fertility, plant development, the implementation of adapted practices, or the adaptation of systems to improve profitability. We also deliver sessions on the economic performance analysis theme, to measure the profitability of these systems a posteriori.
KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER FROM OUR TRAINING COURSES
Agroecology, agronomy, soil fertility, plant nutrition
INNOVATIVE TOPICS
We design our training courses in such a way as to offer a new perspective on essential topics on the soil, the systems economics and the role of people in the implementation of this new model.
SHORT-TERM TRAININGS
Our courses are structured in a 1 or 2 days format. To adapt to all situations, the course can be spread over several half-days.
For "tailor-made" training courses, the duration varies according to the subject covered.
100% AGROECOLOGY
All our training courses aim to enable learners to develop a more "compatible" agro-ecological vision and practices in such a way as to encourage the development of multi-performing agriculture more in relation to its territory and its environment.
3 TYPES OF FORMAT
Our training courses are designed to be organised mainly on an "inter-company" basis, i.e. bringing together people from different structures.
We also intervene within the same structure or in training centres.
CONSIDERATION OF DISABILITY
If you are affected by a disability, we make the necessary arrangements to enable you to benefit fully from our courses.
AN ADAPTED TRAINING PATH
At present, our training program consists of 8 modules:
-
Module M1 - Evolve to agroecology to improve technical and agronomic performances,
-
Module M2 - Increase fertility of the soil,
-
Module M3 - Understand the plant nutrition mechanism to implement effective systems,
-
Module M4 - Redox potential and pH: understand their influence on the relationship between soil and plant to better develop agroecological practices,
-
Module M5 - Success in cover crops to improve agroecological performance,
-
Module M6 - Understand and value the soil analysis to increase its fertility,
-
Module M7 - Soil Analysis – Become Independent in Diagnosis Development and Agronomic Solution Formulation
-
Module M8 - Taylor-made training courses.
The module M7 is in itself independent: its content and format will be adapted according to the audience and the subject concerned.
Modules M4, M5 and M6 each go into more detail on a theme covered in modules M1, M2 or M3. The articulation between these modules and the resulting training path depend on the initial status of the participant.
As for module M7, it follows directly from module M6. Consequently, module M7 can only be completed if the learner has previously completed module M6.
The candidate for one of our courses can follow 2 possible paths. The orientation towards one or the other depends on his or her experience in agronomy and/or agricultural practice. This aspect is measured:
-
either just before registering for a course if they contact us beforehand, during an exchange with the candidate,
-
or immediately afterwards, in the light of the answers given in the information gathering questionnaire designed to prepare the course.
LITTLE OR NO FARMING EXPERIENCE
In this case, we recommend that the candidate first complete module M1 or modules M2 and M3 before eventually participating in modules M4, M5, or M6 (in any order).
The candidate may then proceed to module M7 if he has previously participated in module M6
WITH AGRICULTURAL EXPERIENCE
In this case, the candidate can start with the initial six modules of his choice and move from one to another as he wish.
However, once again, module M7 can only be taken if the candidate has previously completed Module M6.
