This is a holistic approach to sustainable agriculture: we considers the situation across the whole farm to deliver the most suitable and safe approach for long-term benefit.This means carefully considering site selection, soil management, seed & planting material, crop rotation, crop nutrition, pest management, water management and landscape management that fits our local conditions and climate.We adapt to changing conditions by combining local knowledge with new research and technology:After earlier calendula experiments, we've committed to a VLAIO calendula project from 2017 to 2021.We run long term university studies on our fields using inversion and non-inversion tillage.Several (post-)doctoral students are involved in monitoring our pioneering agroforestry fields.We run a non-treated orchard with > 25 kinds of locally grafted fruits, with a small field of red fruit.Pass by in the summer to taste a glass of cold-served home grown apple-juice while you walk trough the orchard eating cherries, sweetened with fresh honey from our own bees! In 2019 we launched our apple juices in 3 flavours: one with 2% elderflower berries, one with 6% rubarb, and one with 15% pear. In 2020 Brasserie de la Senne brew a special beer using our barley!In 2021 we have produced Camps Remy flower, which you can order in bags of 3 or 25kg.Our wholistic project has been nominated for the Inbev-Baillet Latour Prize in the past.
