Lansargues (Vert'Veine)

Type of ecosystem Monospecific culture
Working group WG 3: Socio-economic
Location Lansargues (34)
Site manager  Guillaume Duez
Purpose of the experimentation
Experiment the production of wild flowers seeds according to the Vegetal Local label requirements.
The aim is to collect data concerning the production of 26 Mediterranean species among a group of 7 producers with various profiles. Information on the plants behavior and the plot management will be gathered in tables in order to improve the knowledge on the multiplication of these species. The final goal is to produce a proportion of these 26 species in larger plots.
Guillaume work with his two colleagues Morgane and Vincent. They used to plant wild flowers mixes in between melon crops. The role of these flowers is to attract the pollinators and species that eat pests. They choose annual flowering species to fit in the melon culture system. They can couple seeds production and protection of their cultures.
